Most women come into the practice to have optimum pregnancies, to make their pregnancies more comfortable, to achieve balance in their spines and pelvis, and to improve their labour experience/outcome.
As your baby grows, there are physical stresses placed on your body. As a result, muscles tighten (to allow balance and support) and often cause the vertebrae to become restricted, producing some typical pregnancy symptoms.
These common complaints experienced by pregnant women can respond remarkably well to chiropractic care. These include: musculoskeletal issues such as low back pain, hip pain, pain at the pubic bone, mid back pain, rib pain, and sciatic nerve pain. Headaches, swelling , breathing difficulties (associated with rib pain) and general discomfort may also be reduced with chiropractic care.
Dr Krissy & Dr Jen are experienced in the gentle care of women during all stages of pregnancy and use the Webster Technique, gentle blocking procedures, and other AK and SOT techniques to assist with healthy function throughout pregnancy and to prepare the body for labour and birth. NET can also be a very helpful technique when preparing to birth as many emotional topics may present themselves in the lead up to birth and becoming a parent.
Dr Krissy & Jen also love educating our pregnant women and their partners on how to best support the optimal birth space of the pelvis. We hold education sessions in clinic to teach exercises that can be completed in the lead up to birth as well as during birth. These sessions are for both the pregnant woman and their partner to attend and can be booked online or through contacting us directly.
Our goal for our pregnant clients is to have a happy and comfortable pregnancy, an empowering birth experience and a magical start to becoming a mother.
