Pregnancy and Chiropractic?

Pregnant Women

What stage of life could be more expressive of the Perfection or Innate Intelligence within, than when a woman is pregnant? In just less than a year a brand-new human being is formed ready to take on the world. Because we recognize this special time in a woman's life, we are honored to serve pregnant women with safe and gentle chiropractic care throughout their pregnancy.

Today's educated woman recognizes the need for comprehensive care during pregnancy - care that addresses her physical changes, emotional changes and spiritual changes, too. In addition to visits to an obstetrician or mid-wife, she will also seek the counsel and services of a chiropractor who is trained to care specifically for pregnant women - like Dr. Jason. He has participated in post-graduate seminars designed especially to address the needs of pregnant women during this special time and Dr. Jason is happy to offer women who are expecting a child the very best care she has to offer.

Why is chiropractic care vital for women expecting an addition to their family?

As joyous as the expectation of a new family member can be, many radical changes occur in a woman's body during pregnancy. Most of the changes that occur can cause subluxation, including:

• Weight fluctuations
• Posture shifts (as the woman's belly grows, her posture shifts forward)
• Alterations in sleep habits
• Dietary and appetite changes
• Ligaments stretch due to a hormone called relaxin
• Flattening of the arches of the foot
• Emotional swings

Studies show that women who receive chiropractic care throughout their pregnancy have easier and healthier labors with fewer medical interventions. What could be better? And these are just the changes that occur before your little one arrives! Think of the physical, chemical and emotional stresses that come up for Mom, Dad and any siblings adjusting to change.
