Are you pregnant, or have thought about becoming pregnant?
Have you thought about different ways to help
keep you and your growing fetus safe and comfortable?
Chiropractic care during pregnancy
is an essential ingredient to your pre-natal care choices. A large percent of
all pregnant women experience back discomfort/ pain during pregnancy. This is
due to the rapid growth of the baby and interference to your body's normal
structural adaptations to that growth.
As your baby develops, your
uterus enlarges to accommodate the rapid growth. So long as the pelvis is in a
balanced state, the ligaments connected to the uterus maintain an equalized,
supportive suspension for the uterus. If your pelvis is out of balance in any
way, these ligaments become torqued and twisted causing constraint to your
uterus.
This constraint limits the space
of the developing baby. Any compromised position for the baby throughout
pregnancy will affect their optimal development.
Chiropractic care throughout pregnancy restores
balance to your pelvic muscles and ligaments and therefore leads to safer and
easier deliveries for you and your baby. Additionally, the chiropractic
adjustment removes interference to the nervous system allowing your uterus to
function at its maximum potential.
