Chiropractic Care of Pregnant Moms
Chiropractic is important for pregnant women for several reasons.
The first reason is due to the intimate relationship between the spine and nervous system. The nervous system controls and coordinates everything in the body, including the development of the growing baby. Pregnant moms endure a unique sequence of physical and emotional stress that require a specific approach to reduce that stress. When the bones in the spine misalign, they reduce the effectiveness and efficiency of the nerves they control. Chiropractors help restore normal function to the nervous system by restoring normal spinal function.
Secondly, the proper alignment of the pelvis is essential for the normal position of the baby and an easier delivery. Any misalignment of the pelvis can create torsion in the uterus, leading to in-utero constraint, which prevents the baby from moving freely. If the baby can’t get into the ideal position, labor is more difficult and less likely to result in a natural delivery. The Webster technique is a specialized chiropractic technique used to prevent in-utero constraint and assist the baby in finding the ideal position for birth.
Thousands of women use chiropractic during their pregnancy to improve their health and birthing experience. Many women benefit from shorter labors, less pain, fewer interventions, and increased satisfaction with their birthing experience while under chiropractic care.

NEWBORNS
The birthing process these days has been shown to create abnormal stress and tension on a newborn’s spine, musculature, and nerves. Modern Obstetrical delivery procedures can create micro-traumas of the spinal structure and nervous-system in utero or post birth. Chiropractic shortly after birth has demonstrated positive effects in infants experiencing difficulties such as; trouble breast-feeding or latching, infantile colic, allergies, asthma, ADD, chronic ear infections, chronic bed wetting, digestive issues and constipation. At Explore Health & Wellness, we use very soft and gentle pressures (about the weight of a dime) to relieve irritation on the nervous-system so your baby can be healthy and happy as they were created to be.
