Pain Isn’t Normal
Back pain, pelvic pain, sciatica, headaches. Many women think it’s normal to have discomfort during pregnancy, but it’s not. The good news is drug-free chiropractic care can help you enjoy a comfortable pregnancy.
Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic
- Alleviates back and pelvic pain as well as nausea
- Helps baby get into the optimal birth position
- Reduces labor time
In addition to using the Drop Technique, Dr. Kelsey Whitaker is a member of the ICPA and is certified in the Webster Technique. She lets patients know on the phone that the method is not about breech babies.
Instead, the focus is on ensuring that your muscles in the lower pelvic floor are relaxed and in a position that allows the baby to pass as easily as possible, to avoid a lengthy labor.
Using this highly specific technique, Dr. Whitaker addresses either the ligaments or the muscle and then adjusts the sacrum and the cervical spine. The purpose of the adjustment is to help release neural tension in the body. When the pelvic muscles are relaxed the baby can move into the most optimal position for delivery.
When should I start getting care?
While you can benefit from chiropractic at every stage of pregnancy, regular early and consistent care makes for an easier and more comfortable pregnancy.
Another benefit of being under chiropractic care is that Dr. Whitaker, who is a trained physician, can monitor your health and if she finds anything unusual, she can refer you back to your OB-GYN.
Gently! Our special tables feature drop-away pieces that allow a pregnant woman to lie down on her belly. We also have pregnancy pillows, so that moms feel comfortable.
Chiropractic not only can allow a mom to be healthy throughout pregnancy but her baby as well. There also may be a reduction in C-sections for women under chiropractic care. In Dr. Whitaker’s opinion, chiropractic decreases the rate of C-section.
