However, the effects of chiropractic care during pregnancy are far-reaching and extend way beyond pain relief! Proper function of the nervous system and spinal stability are vitally important to the health and comfort of mom and baby throughout pregnancy and positively affect the birthing process. The following article takes a more in-depth look at the benefits of chiropractic care in Rocklin CA before, during, and after the many changes of pregnancy including labor and delivery.

Prenatal Chiropractic In Rocklin CA

During pregnancy, a woman’s body physically changes to accommodate the growing baby and to prepare for labor and delivery. As the baby grows, the mother’s center of gravity shifts, and hormonal changes cause modified gait and postural stress throughout her spine and pelvis. This can aggravate pre-existing conditions or suddenly present new aches and pains. The benefit of regular chiropractic care to correct spinal stress and misalignment can improve posture, relieve pressure on the spine and nerves, and reduce tension and pain. Many women find when incorporating chiropractic care into their prenatal wellness, they experience less stress and fatigue, better rest/sleep, improved immune and digestive function, and decreased anxiety.
