Why go for chiropractic care during pregnancy?

Pregnancy is both an exciting and challenging time in every mom’s life. During pregnancy, a woman’s body is going through many unprecedented changes:

Due to increased weight, the center of gravity moves forward, producing an extra strain on the skeletal system.
A shifted center of gravity contributes to changes in gait, which leads to changes in muscle and joint mobility.
Changes in posture due to a shifted center of gravity may cause loss of cervical curve and thus headaches.

Hormonal changes often cause ligament laxity, increased mobility, and decreased stability in joints.
Spinal and pelvic misalignment during pregnancy often results in back pain. These misalignments also interfere with the nervous system — the condition known as subluxation.
The intrauterine constraint is common for spinal and pelvic misalignment. It often compromises the optimal fetal positioning.

But, there is a way to make the pregnancy period more comfortable! Receiving chiropractic care regularly allows pregnant women to adapt to these changes. Minimizing the unpleasant symptoms helps the expecting moms to enjoy this period of life to the fullest.

Benefits of prenatal chiropractic care for a mom

Seeing a chiropractor and getting adjustments is helpful and safe at any stage of pregnancy.

Prenatal chiropractic adjustments help restore the proper spinal and pelvic alignment. As a result, pregnant women can get relief from back and pelvic pain.

Besides, proper alignment is essential for effective communication between the brain and body. The pregnancy-specific chiropractic adjustments help reduce nervous system interference.

Next, optimal alignment in a pregnant woman’s body helps eliminate the intrauterine constraint. So, a developing baby gets enough space to grow and get into the optimal birth position. This condition is essential to ensure easier and faster labor.

Benefits of prenatal chiropractic care for a baby

Chiropractic care not only addresses the high demands on a pregnant woman’s body but also provides benefits for a growing baby. Labor and delivery are stressful for both mom and her baby. Chiropractic care can significantly lower this stress.

After the adjustments and particularly the Webster technique, a baby gets more freedom to move inside the uterus. As the restraints on the uterus decrease, a baby is more likely to get into the optimal position. The head-down positioning is a key to a smoother labor process and a lower probability of a C-section and other interventions.

Besides, do not underestimate the role of birth-related stress. Minimizing the stress a baby gets during birth is also important for managing stress throughout their life. So, a smooth delivery means a great start to the new life!

What is so special about chiropractic care during each stage of pregnancy?

Regular adjustments are good at each stage of pregnancy – it’s never too early or too late. We recommend getting chiropractic care throughout the entire pregnancy period.

In the first trimester, women often face the exacerbation of their preexisting conditions. They may begin to feel more headaches or muscle tension. Adjustments at this stage aim to prevent the further development of these unwanted conditions. Achieving this builds the foundation for future well-being.

In the second trimester, the structural and hormonal changes become more noticeable. Together with fixing the misalignments, a doctor may provide some recommendations at this stage. They may cover diet and lifestyle habits, such as sleeping positions or work ergonomics.

Check this video to see the chiropractic adjustments during week 22 in the second trimester.

In the third trimester, optimal pelvic motion becomes especially important. The primary goal of adjustments at this stage is restoring the proper pelvic alignment. A properly aligned pelvis means no intrauterine constraint and enough space for a baby to move and grow freely. The Webster technique is among the most effective techniques for achieving optimal biomechanics in the pelvic region.

Whatever trimester you are in, prenatal care from a professional chiropractor will always be relevant. Take a step toward a healthy pregnancy today! Schedule your first visit to our chiropractic team in Austin today!

Can chiropractic care help achieve the optimal positioning of a baby?

Chiropractors don’t turn babies into the optimal position. Rather than that, they restore the proper alignment in a pregnant woman’s body. A misaligned pelvis often causes pressure and torsion on the uterus, leaving less space for a baby to move and grow.

To restore the proper pelvic alignment, the Webster chiropractic technique comes in handy. This specific prenatal chiropractic adjustment helps balance hips and uterine ligaments. As a result, a baby has enough room to get into the best birthing position.

As a result, a baby gets more room to move within the uterus. More opportunities for movement increase the chances of getting a baby into a head-down position. The optimal fetal positioning contributes to easier labor and smooth delivery.

What about postpartum chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care is helpful for both pregnant and postpartum mothers. At Lifespring Chiropractic, we also work with newborn babies. The birth process is always stressful for both a mom and a baby.

Seeing a chiropractor after giving birth can help women in many ways:

Besides, a doctor can recommend specific rehabilitative exercises to strengthen muscle tone.

As for infants, postpartum chiropractic care is good to ensure proper alignment in their bodies. A proper alignment in a baby’s body often results in improved sleep, reduced colic, and better digestion.
