Pregnancy

During pregnancy, there are many changes that take place in the body in order to create the proper environment for growing and nurturing your baby. These changes are both physical and hormonal. The physical changes can result in:

• Protruding abdomen
• Increased back curve
• Pelvic imbalance
• Misalignment
• Negative posture changes

Having your pelvis balanced and aligned is a very important reason to seek chiropractic during pregnancy. When a pelvis is misaligned, it can reduce the amount of room you have for your growing baby, a condition known as “intrauterine constraint.” Misalignment in the pelvis can also hinder delivery, as it can prevent the baby from getting in the optimal position for birthing.
