There is no disputing the fact that pregnancy can be very uncomfortable. Morning sickness, swollen feet, back aches, and hormonal swings can make nine months seem more like nine years. Chiropractic care has been shown to be an effective treatment for some of the common aches and pains associated with pregnancy. Low back pain, sciatica, mid back pain, neck pain, headaches, and numbness and tingling in hands and feet are some of the most common conditions that I see when treating patients during pregnancy. Chiropractic care is 100% safe for mother and baby. Gentle adjustments align the bones of the back, neck, and pelvis to alleviate the pressure and strain from weight gain.
The research in the link below shows the efficacy of chiropractic with back pain during pregnancy. The results are really quite impressive:
52% improved at 1 week
70% improved at 1 month
85% improved at 3 months
90% improved at 6 months
