Chiropractic During Pregnancy

Chiropractic During Pregnancy

As your baby grows, your centre of gravity shifts forward, your ligaments loosen due to hormonal changes, and additional weight places increased stress on your spine and pelvis. These changes commonly cause lower back pain, pelvic pain, sciatica, and postural discomfort — especially in the second and third trimesters.

Prenatal chiropractic care uses gentle, low-force techniques that are adapted for pregnant women. No face-down positioning is required — we use pregnancy-specific pillows and modified techniques that keep you comfortable throughout treatment.

Regular chiropractic care during pregnancy can help maintain proper pelvic alignment, reduce back and hip pain, and support your body as it adapts to the demands of carrying your baby.
