At Handcrafted Chiropractic, we provide safe and effective chiropractic care for women who are pregnant, helping you manage discomfort, improve mobility, and support your body through the changes of pregnancy. Pregnancy is a beautiful and exciting journey, but it can also come with its challenges, such as back pain, pelvic discomfort, and postural changes that affect your daily activities. Our skilled chiropractic team specializes in gentle, pregnancy-specific adjustments designed to reduce pain and improve overall comfort for expecting mothers, all while ensuring the safety of both you and your baby.
Pregnancy often brings a variety of discomforts that can affect your daily life, including:
As your body adjusts to the growing baby, the added weight can put pressure on the spine and lead to lower back pain.
Pelvic Pain & Hip Discomfort
The growing uterus and shifting ligaments can lead to pelvic pain and discomfort in the hips.
Sciatica
As the baby grows, pressure on the sciatic nerve can cause shooting pain down the legs.
Postural Changes
Hormonal changes and the shifting center of gravity can lead to poor posture, resulting in tension in the neck and shoulders.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Pregnancy-related swelling can compress the median nerve in the wrist, leading to numbness, tingling, or pain.
Alleviates Pregnancy-Related Pain
Chiropractic adjustments provide relief from common discomforts such as back pain, pelvic pain, and sciatica, allowing you to experience greater comfort during pregnancy.
Supports Optimal Fetal Positioning
Techniques like the Webster Technique help improve pelvic alignment, which can support optimal fetal positioning and reduce the risk of breech births.
Improves Mobility & Posture
Chiropractic care helps expecting mothers maintain proper spinal alignment, posture, and flexibility, making it easier to stay active and comfortable throughout the pregnancy.
