SERVICE – PREGNANCY CHIROPRACTIC
Pregnancy is a thrilling journey, and for many women, it’s their first experience with chiropractic care.
Whether it’s due to the discomfort of common pregnancy symptoms like back pain, sciatica or headaches or a baby positioning issue like breech or transverse presentation, Chiropractic care throughout pregnancy is an excellent strategy to not only keep your spine and nervous system healthy but also to support the developing spine and nervous system of your baby.
For many women core problems in the spine and nerve system make themselves known during this time of rapid change in the body.
Here are just a few of the symptoms (or collateral damage) that underlying spinal problems can lead to:
- Low Back Pain
- Pelvic Pain
- Headaches
- Hip Pain
- Wrist Pain
- Sciatica
- Round Ligament Pain
- Leg Cramps
- Discomfort Changing Positions
- Pubic Pain
- Breech Position
- Intrauterine Constraint
- Difficulty Sleeping
By addressing the core problem and the stressors that led to it the body is better able to adapt to the normal and natural changes of pregnancy.
Here are just a few of the benefits of Chiropractic care during pregnancy:
- Improved pelvic and spinal alignment enabling a clear passage for baby to travel through during birth
- Reduced labour and delivery times
- Reduced need for pain medication and medical intervention
- Decreased symptoms of nausea
- Decreased symptoms of back, neck, pelvic or other joint pain
- Enhanced immune system function
- Less discomfort created by the shifts in centre of gravity/posture
- Reduced nerve interference allowing the uterus to function optimally
- Better nerve system regulation – more calm…less stress
- Decreased in-utero constraint giving baby the optimal conditions to assume the normal head down position for birth
Dr. Ange is not only specially trained in prenatal care and certified in the Webster technique, a specific Chiropractic technique used during pregnancy to decrease in-utero constraint (a condition leading to dystocia or longer births), but she has experienced first hand the benefits of Chiropractic care during both of her pregnancies.
