Pregnancy and Chiropractic

Written By Austin Dempsey

Common questions arise when thinking about chiropractic care when you’re pregnant. The most frequent one being “is it safe”. The answer is yes. As chiropractors we are trained to find misalignments or subluxations within the spine. These misalignments especially during the rapid changes of pregnancy can cause several uncomfortable symptoms including:

  • Low Back Pain

  • Hip Pain

  • Pubic bone pain

  • Neck Pain

  • Shoulder pain

  • Nausea

  • Heartburn

Some chiropractors (including Dr Dempsey) have undergone addition training and certification to ensure the best practices during care. Webster Certification is overseen by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). Webster is a specific system of analysis to evaluate the lower bones of your spine and hips. This ensures we adjust what is needed and when its needed to provide optimal alignment.

In some studies there was as high as 97% resolution of common symptoms during pregnancy. If you or someone you know is pregnant and looking to find ways relieve their symptoms, chiropractic is a great affordable way to help. Schedule with us today!
