and Prenatal Care Options In Longmont, CO

Thousands of women use chiropractic care during their pregnancy to improve their health and birth experience. Research shows that many women who are under chiropractic care benefit from shorter labors, less pain, less interventions, and a better overall birth experience.

Pelvic misalignment may prevent babies from assuming the best possible position for labor and delivery, thereby contributing to a difficult labor for the mother. This can affect the mother’s ability to have a natural or non-invasive birth, as well as contribute to breech and posterior positions of the baby. These less than optimal positions of the baby can interfere with the natural ease of labor and lead to interventions such as C-sections.

More women are now discovering the benefits of chiropractic care in pregnancy. Low back pain is one of the most common complaints of pregnant women who seek chiropractic care. However, as more women use chiropractic care, they experience added benefits to receiving chiropractic adjustments during their pregnancy.

Potential benefits of Chiropractic care during pregnancy include:

• Maintaining a healthier pregnancy

• Controlling symptoms of nausea

• Relieving back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint pain and carpal tunnel

• Reducing time of labor and delivery

• Reducing the risk of cesarean delivery or other interventions

• Promoting an optimal position for the baby during pregnancy and for delivery

If your baby is in breech presentation, due to a misalignment of the pelvis, chiropractic care is a great option. When a pregnant woman’s pelvis is misaligned, it can pull on the uterus. This pulling decreases the amount of space in the uterus and doesn’t allow the baby to move into the correct, comfortable position. By realigning the pelvis and relaxing muscles of the abdominal, the baby has extra room to move into the correct position for labor naturally, allowing for faster, healthier labor.
