Prenatal chiropractic treatment involves safe and gentle
adjustments, massage, exercise and stretching.
Throughout pregnancy, chiropractic techniques are adapted for
belly growth and modified using props like pregnancy pillows.
The chiropractor can assess your pelvis, sacrum and vertebrae
for any misalignments that could be responsible for pain or creating uterine
constraint.
Tips for Expectant Mothers
In addition to gentle, non-invasive chiropractic treatment,
there are some tips you can follow to help keep your spine aligned:
1. Exercise!
Keep your core strong so it can support your spine. Ask your
healthcare practitioner about the benefits of swimming, yoga or other
low-impact exercise programs.
2. Sleep well!
You know you need to rest, but are you sleeping smart? Your
growing uterus can place pressure on the large blood vessels in your abdomen
and restrict blood flow.
Sleep on your left side and place a pillow between your knees
to keep your spine in proper alignment.
3. Think twice!
Maybe put those killer heels aside until after the baby is
born.
Rest frequently with your feet elevated.
Don’t lift heavy objects (or toddlers) – ask for help.
