If you are pregnant, or wanting to become pregnant – Chiropractic care is an amazing option to help support you along this journey!

Growing a baby is one of the most amazing, miraculous parts of our life experience.  There are many factors that can have a negative impact on this beautiful process, and most of them stem from different forms of stress. 

We live in a fast paced, high stressed, go go go society.  This is just reality.  The impacts of this emotional, physical and even chemical stress impacts fertility of our mothers and future mothers.

The growth and development of a growing baby in the womb directly depends on the function of the nervous system of the mother.  If mom is experiencing levels of physical stress from their demands at work or at home, emotional stress, and are exposed to toxins and chemicals and poor nutrition – this can shift their nervous system to be in a more dominant stressed state, vs. being able to relax, rest and grow their baby. 

Too much stress and decreased resilience and adaptability will shift your nervous system into a state of stress dominance. Stress dominance will drive higher neuromuscular tone (leading to tight muscles), decreased blood flow to the internal organs, increased stress hormones, and completely shift our physiology. These changes can lead to troubles in sleep, movement patterns, pain and discomfort, dysregulation of body functions and hormones, and can impact the nervous system of the developing baby.

Although we cannot avoid stress completely, we can help identify areas of stress that we can either modify or eliminate to help mom take some of the load off. More importantly, Chiropractic care through the journey of pregnancy can help mom’s nervous system become more resilient and more adaptable to life stressors. By keeping Moms nervous system in a state of adaptability and ease, baby will benefit from this as well.

Setting mom up for a healthy pregnancy and help to guide her through to prepare for labor and delivery can help improve the outcomes for birth for mom and baby!

Our care focuses on the nervous system, and we use a combined technique of identifying where stress is getting stuck within the nervous system (termed subluxations) through our INSiGHT scan technology, and create an individualized care plan of adjustments using Webster Technique to keep mom and baby at their best!

So whether you are prepping for pregnancy, or are already pregnant and want to improve your experience, we can help!
