pregnancy

For anyone who has been, or is now pregnant, you know of the discomforts associated with pregnancy. Soon after conception, a woman begins to produce a hormone known as Relaxin. This hormone allows the female pelvis joints to become loose, allowing for the passage of her newborn child in the next nine months. This hormone not only relaxes the pelvis, but every other joint in the body as well, including the spine. This in one reason why Chiropractic for pregnant women is so important.

As a woman progresses through pregnancy the baby grows at a remarkable rate. As this child grows and puts on weight, he/she becomes responsible for a woman's center of gravity being set off balance. The weight of the growing fetus begins to add excessive stress to the mothers spine, and often leads to lower back discomfort and pain. Knowing what we already know about the health benefits of Chiropractic, we know that if the muscles of the lower back are not getting the proper information from the nerves, neither is the uterus and developing child. As Chiropractors, we are the only doctors trained to detect and correct the Vertebral Subluxations, effecting you and ultimately your growing child.
