Pregnancy is an incredibly exciting time where many wonderful things are happening. But between caring for your growing baby, yourself, and keeping track of doctor’s appointments, chiropractic sometimes falls to the wayside. But did you know chiropractic adjustments are a great way to support a pregnant woman’s changing body and help prepare for upcoming delivery? Here is why we suggest chiropractic care for pregnant women.
When the spine is in proper alignment, the entire nervous system functions at its best. As your body changes during pregnancy, your spine and hips will shift to accommodate the added stress put on your body by your growing baby. Regular chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy allow your body to function optimally.
The pains you feel during pregnancy are well worth it for your little one, but that’s no reason to suffer unnecessarily. Back pain, muscle discomfort, and joint pain are all very common symptoms of pregnancy and are mostly due to the stress caused by the weight of your growing baby. Fortunately, chiropractic adjustments are a gentle, safe, and effective tool for relieving pains throughout your entire pregnancy.
Because we create unique treatment plans for each of our patient’s specific needs, we know that when treating pregnant women, we need to focus on ensuring proper pelvic positioning. A misaligned pelvis can limit the space available for your developing baby and also leads to poor posture, which causes body aches.
Every mom-to-be wishes for a quick and easy delivery. When the pelvis is misaligned, it can make the birthing process much more difficult than it needs to be. For mothers aiming for a natural and non-invasive birth, chiropractic care is a given!
Whether you are pregnant now or planning to start a family in the future, keep regular chiropractic care in your life. To learn more about how chiropractic can benefit you during your pregnancy, click here contact us at Wills Chiropractic!
The holiday season is a time to eat, drink, and be merry. But if you’re hoping to stay on track with your diet and avoid the temptation to indulge, it can be a challenging time, too. These healthy eating tips offer ways to avoid overeating but still satisfy your taste buds that you can apply well beyond the holidays.
Wrapping gifts can be enough of a challenge as it is, but it can be especially hard if you struggle with lower back pain. But if you know how to wrap gifts in a way that relieves pressure and tension in your back, you can spread holiday cheer and deliver beautifully wrapped gifts even if you’re dealing with a pinched nerve or herniated disc.
