At Ballas Chiropractic, we love welcoming patients of all ages into our care, including pregnant women and children. If you’re pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, we’d love to work with you and help you understand the many benefits of natural, gentle chiropractic care during pregnancy.
Even though the discomfort felt during pregnancy involves the spine, our office also addresses the underlying muscles in the surrounding area. These include the abdomen, pelvic floor, gluteal area and leg muscles. All of these are vital to the health of the low back, and often become fatigued and weakened during pregnancy. This weakening can cause other symptoms like sciatica, restless leg syndrome and even muscle cramping.
We provide a thorough evaluation to assess each individuals’ condition, and prescribe stretches and exercises to help. It’s our privilege to support women through these special times in their lives, and go out of our way to ensure women have every chance to enjoy healthy, comfortable pregnancies.
Benefits of Care
Prenatal chiropractic care has been shown to provide a host of benefits for both mother and baby. For mom, regular chiropractic adjustments can help relieve back pain, improve sleep quality, reduce stress levels, and increase overall energy levels. Chiropractic care during pregnancy can also help position the baby in the optimal position for delivery, reducing the risk of complications during labor and delivery. And for babies, regular chiropractic adjustments can help relieve colic, improve sleep patterns, and boost immunity.
