Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pregnancy chiropractic gives structural support to expectant mothers through every stage of pregnancy. We can help alleviate symptoms and create more space for your baby to ensure the proper position for labor.
Better support
for moms and
developing babies
Expectant moms need extra support as their bodies go through transformations to sustain them and their developing babies. Chiropractic care keeps your body balanced, so it’s better supported throughout pregnancy and more prepared for labor.
Pregnancy Chiropractic Benefits
Stay in alignment
Give your body the structural support it needs throughout pregnancy and labor.
Create better space for baby
Decrease uterine constraints to help your baby move into the proper position for birth.
Alleviate common symptoms

Expert care for expectant moms
Expecting a baby is an exciting time. The not-so-exciting times are when you experience back or hip pain, swelling, digestive issues or any other nagging pregnancy symptom.
Chiropractic care works to keep your spine and pelvis in alignment as your center of gravity shifts to accommodate a growing baby and prepare for labor. As a result of alignment, you can feel more energized, pain-free and better prepared for labor.
Plus, we take a whole-body approach to supporting you, so you’ll have access to our expertise in other areas of wellness. Our goal? To ensure you feel your best during this crucial season of your life.
A changing body needs balance
During pregnancy, the body undergoes incredible changes. Along with those changes comes the need for balance.
Misalignment of the bones (including the pelvis) and restrictions on the ligaments (including those connected to the uterus) are common.
For most women, chiropractic care during pregnancy is proven to be safe and effective. It not only alleviates pain but also:
- Allows your baby to move into the proper position for labor.
- Better facilitates your baby passing through the birth canal.
- Is a holistic approach that treats your whole body and increases its capacity to adapt and heal.
Treatments are specialized for the expectant mom using gentle and expert prenatal techniques. Because hormones during pregnancy soften the ligaments, the body often responds very well to the gentlest of adjustments.
