Pregnancy

Many women, including mid-wives, nurses and medical doctors have sought our care during their pregnancies.  There are countless other women from all walks of life who come to us as well.  I mention these particular women because they are ‘in the know’.  These women are dedicated healthcare professionals.  They choose chiropractic care during their pregnancies for many different reasons but mainly because pregnancy is a natural event making chiropractic care a natural choice.

The first and most important reason to receive chiropractic during your pregnancy:

Did you ever read a book on how to build a human body?  Crazy question?  Well, how does a woman do it?  Are her doctors telling her body what to do?  Of course not.  Our understanding of how the body works is slim compared to the knowledge that runs you everyday.  Just because we cannot comprehend it all yet does not make it any different.  Your body does not rely on you understanding what it is doing to go ahead and do it.  Your body will work to survive and thrive because of you and sometimes in spite of you.  Chiropractic’s first link to pregnancy?  A  nervous system that is in proper working order runs everything that is happening in your body including the formation and growth of your child.  It is healthy, gentle and a responsible move to see that you are at your peak during pregnancy for your sake and for your baby.

The second reason many women choose chiropractic during pregnancy:

As soon as you conceive, the body begins changing and releasing hormones to enable you to carry your baby to term and aid in a normal delivery.  What controls all of those chemical changes?  The nervous system, it balances and coordinates them all.  Not too much, not too little – just right.  Chiropractic care aids in keeping the balance.  Simple.

The third reason chiropractic is a lifesaver during pregnancy:

Women go through a ton of changes during pregnancy.  Their bodies are dealing with hormones and changes in sleeping, eating and lifestyle patterns.  Just for fun throw in a massive shift in how their body carries its own weight.  If you had a healthy spine before the baby, great your body will still have to adapt to the mechanical changes of carrying your bundle of joy.  If you had spinal instability or back problems before your pregnancy you may now be in for a whole new world of hurt.  We help support and ease your body through this process and the bottom line is that when your body is balanced through chiropractic care you may be able to avoid a great deal of suffering.  This takes so much stress off the process and can make pregnancy an enjoyable and fun process.

A better pregnancy, more natural delivery, less complications and worry.  What have you got to lose?
