As any mother-to-be knows, there is a shift of weight and balance that occurs with the growing baby inside. This increased weight shift increases the physical stress on the spine, pelvis, and hip and back muscles. In pregnant women, chiropractic adjustments can help prevent or reduce the frequency and intensity of pain in the low back, legs, and hips, and even up between the shoulder blades. In most cases, symptoms of nausea and bowel changes are also reduced. Chiropractic, in the hands of an experienced doctor, is safe and effective.

Chiropractic for expectant mothers is part of our daily practice. Each client receives gentle treatment geared to their specific condition and symptoms, and is safe right up until the end of pregnancy. Dr. Shaw has extensive experience treating pregnant women throughout pregnancy and after delivery.

Perhaps most important is that chiropractic helps the expecting mother by improving the function of the nervous system. With a properly functioning nervous system, free of interference, many aspects of this important time for an expectant mother will be made easier. Many women rely on chiropractic care as a regular part of their pre-natal routine.

Feel better, have more energy, experience an easier childbirth. Make chiropractic part of your pre-natal care.
