Lower back pain during pregnancy.  Patients, especially women, ask me all the time.  Is it safe to see a Chiropractor while pregnant?  The answer is YES!!  Not only is it safe, chiropractic care helps with the lower back pain during pregnancy  and helps the delivery go much smoother when the time comes.

You have to remember your body is going through changes.  You’re carrying weight where there once was none.  Hormones are flowing, preparing the way for the pelvis to open.  Things will get knocked out of place a little easier.  The good news is that it’s easier to put it back in place and does not require much force at all.

I’ve had pregnant women come in with ribs out of alignment affecting their breathing or their pelvis out of alignment.  If they have never been to a chiropractor before it is totally understandable to be apprehensive.

It doesn’t take much force to realign the bones and they often just pop back in place by themselves with a little pressure.  Pregnant women are actually easier to adjust than regular patients!

And as a bonus I know acupuncture that will help turn a breech baby if needed!

Look forward to helping you at the office!
