How does chiropractic help pregnancy and post-pregnancy?
If there’s any class of patients that need chiropractic care the most, it is pregnant women. Pregnancy changes a women’s balance and can make distortions more severe, which can cause pain and exhaustion. Chiropractic care can help ensure that the body is balanced and that the pelvis is relaxed and open, so that the developing baby has the maximum amount of room in which to develop. Clinical research reveals that breech presentations have been corrected, with the fetus turning into a healthy position, as a result of chiropractic pelvis balancing procedures. Clinical reports show chiropractic also helps with breastfeeding and the return to a pre-pregnancy figure.
