Pregnancy Chiropractic Care in Naperville
Pregnant bodies endure significant physical, hormonal, and emotional changes during and after pregnancy. According to the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), chiropractic is safe during all stages of pregnancy. Expectant moms (and those trying to conceive) can get relief from a variety of common issues with chiropractic, such as:
- Constipation
- Headaches
- Heartburn
- Low back pain
- Sleep difficulties due to discomfort
- Stress and/or anxiety
Our practice can accommodate expecting moms at every stage of pregnancy. We have special adjusting tables that will accommodate growing bellies. We utilize the Webster Technique to ensure that a woman’s pelvis is in a much more balanced state to encourage optimal fetal position. The chief goal of Webster is to optimize the balance in the pelvis so that mom and baby can work in unison for a healthy delivery.
Caring for Mom
During those first three months postpartum (“the fourth trimester”), much of the relaxin hormone remains. We can take advantage of the ligament laxity to help restore balance to the pelvis as mom is recovering from birth. Chiropractic care during this important recovery period can also counteract the physical and mental stress of caring for a newborn, regulate stress levels, and improve sleep quality — making the most of the sleep you do find during those early weeks.
