Why You Should See A Concord Chiropractor During Pregnancy

The most obvious answer is that you are pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant. During pregnancy, several changes occur in your body, in preparation for growing your baby. One such change is the production of the pregnancy hormone relaxin, which makes ligaments soft, allowing the pelvis to be more flexible during birth. The effect of relaxin, along with other postural adaptations such as increased weight and a protruding belly, can make pregnancy an especially uncomfortable, if not painful, time without chiropractic care in Concord.

Our experienced and well-trained prenatal chiropractors can help get the tension out of the tight muscles and then comfortably adjust any joints that are restricted. This restores function and allows us to:

• Eliminate aches and pains naturally
• Reduce back pain, sciatica, hip pain, and Piriformis Syndrome
• Promote relaxation, reduce stress & improve sleep
• Improve mood & cardiovascular health
• Support GI function and improve acid reflux

Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Care:

• Feel more comfortable, even with the additional weight
• Feel more relaxed and at ease about your pregnancy
• Feel confident in what your body can do

Prenatal chiropractic care is very safe. Our pregnancy chiropractic care involves the use of the chiropractor’s hands primarily; however, on occasion, the activator method will be utilized as well.

Natural childbirth

Establishing pelvic joint balance and alignment is the most essential part of prenatal chiropractic care. When the pelvis is out of balance, it will make labor more difficult, more painful, and last longer. This can also lead to a twisting of the uterus, known as intrauterine constraint, which can make it difficult for a baby to get into the best possible position for delivery. The Doctors at Barton Chiropractic can help the pelvis be more mobile and symmetrical. This can make labor faster and easier, and will help ensure that the baby is in the optimum position for birth.
