“Chiropractic care in pregnancy is vital to the normal physiological function of both the mother and baby in pregnancy and birth.”
— Jeanne Ohm, DC
During pregnancy, there are multiple physiological and endocrinological changes that occur in preparation for creating the environment necessary for a developing baby. Consistent chiropractic care throughout pregnancy can help establish proper pelvic balance and alignment which increases available room in the uterus and gets the baby in the best possible position for delivery. Reducing the likelihood of breech or posterior positioning of the baby can assist in the mother’s ability to have a more natural, non-invasive birth.
