Pregnancy & Child Care
Chiropractic care not only reduces aches and pains during pregnancy it also creates a state of balance in the pelvic bones, ligaments, and muscles. Evidence shows that this state of balance makes pregnancy and labor easier. Creating this balance also offers your baby more room to move into the best possible position for birth. For example, chiropractic adjustments can encourage a breech baby to move into a head down position. In addition, chiropractic care reduces interference in your nervous system giving you more power and stamina during the labor process. This generally decreases the need for intervention.
After your baby is born Chiropractic care can help speed recovery, relieve postpartum pains and prevent the occurrence of pain in the future. Dr. Jen is Webster certified, meaning she has taken specialized training to care for women through their pregnancy.
