Is chiropractic care beneficial and safe for pregnant women?

Yes, chiropractic care is both safe and highly beneficial for pregnant women. Chiropractic care, particularly the Webster Technique, helps pregnant women by balancing the pelvis and reducing nervous system tension, allowing the body to better adapt to the physical and hormonal changes of pregnancy. This can help relieve common pregnancy discomforts such as back pain, sciatica, and pelvic pressure while promoting overall well-being. By improving nervous system function, chiropractic care also promotes better mobility, stability, and resilience throughout pregnancy.

Should my kids get checked as well?

From birth and beyond, children experience physical stresses that may impact their spinal alignment and nervous system. Chiropractic adjustments for kids are gentle and tailored to their age, size, and developmental stage. Regular check-ups can support proper growth, improve sleep, boost immunity, and help with common issues like colic, ear infections, reflux, and feeding difficulties. A regulated nervous system sets the foundation for a healthy life.

Is chiropractic for more than just aches and pains?

While many people initially visit a chiropractor for relief from back or neck pain, chiropractic care is about much more than just symptom management. It focuses on optimizing the function of the nervous system, which is the control center for all the systems of the body. Chiropractic care enhances overall health, boosts energy levels, improves sleep, strengthens the immune system, and even supports mental clarity. It’s a proactive approach to whole-body wellness.
