Is Prenatal Chiropractic Care Safe for Mom and Baby?

Because you're reading this article, you may already know that chiropractic care does NOT use drugs or surgery to restore and maintain the health of the spinal column, discs, related nerves and bone geometry. What could be safer than that for a women looking for an infant chiropractic center? Prenatal chiropractic care promotes health throughout the body, both for the mother and baby.

McKim Chiropractic Clinic Boise ID is a health care profession treat with Prenatal Chiropractic Boise ID and Infant Chiropractic Boise ID care which is Safe for Mom and Baby.

Chiropractors who work with pregnant women may use tables that adjust for a pregnant woman's body, and they will use techniques that avoid unneeded pressure on the abdomen. A chiropractor will not only make spinal adjustments, but will generally recommend exercises and stretches that are safe to use during pregnancy.

Why should I have chiropractic care during pregnancy?


During pregnancy, there are physiological and endocrinological changes occurring which are working to create the environment for the developing baby. Establishing pelvic balance and alignment is an important during pregnancy. When the pelvis is misaligned it may reduce the amount of room available for the developing baby may also make it difficult for the baby to get into the best possible position for delivery. This can affect the mother's ability to have a natural, non-invasive birth. Breech and posterior positions can interfere with the natural ease of labor and lead to interventions such as c-sections.

What are the benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic care?


Potential benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy include:

  • A healthier pregnancy
  • Control nausea
  • Reduce labor and delivery time
  • Relieve pain in the back, neck or joints
  • Prevent caesarean section

To help your newborn achieve optimum growth and development, infant chiropractic care can be part of post-natal care. The birth process is one of the most physically, chemically and emotionally stressful events to the human body. Newborns are particularly susceptible to becoming subluxated during birth. Such stresses may not be immediately obvious and, if left uncorrected, may not become apparent for many years.
