Pregnancy & Pediatrics
It’s never too early or late to pursue a healthy and pain free quality of life!
Ideally while pregnant, every woman should be under chiropractic care. At no other time in your life are pelvic balance, proper joint motion and optimal nervous system function more important!
Not only can routine chiropractic care help manage pain in your back, hips and joints, it can also establish pelvic posture and balance- helping you stay more comfortable during your pregnancy!
Chiropractic care includes gentle spinal and pelvic adjustments, muscle work, ligament releasee (including round ligaments) and providing simple exercises to help maintain normal pelvic posture.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy has been shown to:
- Help maintain activity during pregnancy
- Reduce the need for pain medication during pregnancy
- Be safe for mom and baby
Dr. Heather, (a mother of two lovely teenagers) completed her prenatal and pediatric chiropractic care training in 2014 as well as her certification of proficiency in the Webster Technique through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment that reduces interference to the nervous system and balances maternal pelvic muscles and ligaments.
