Among pregnant women, three of every four experience pregnancy-related lower back pain, pelvic pain, or a combination of both that prenatal chiropractic can alleviate. Patients our chiropractor treats at Triumphant Life Chiropractic in Broomfield can look forward to relief from these pregnancy-related issues after treatment that uses only natural therapies.

Overview of Prenatal Chiropractic

Prenatal chiropractic describes services our chiropractor performs to correct or maintain the spinal column, spinal discs, nerves, and bone geometry using therapies that avoid surgery or medication. The objective is to restore the body’s natural alignment. This eliminates stress placed on nerves in the spine and encourages the body to self-heal, resulting in improved overall health and well-being. Patients also experience improved pelvic alignment and balance.

Practitioners have received specific training to make sure any stretches and exercises prescribed are safe. They focus on using chiropractic techniques that avoid placing too much stress on the patient’s abdomen and sometimes utilize special adjustable tables that accommodate advancing pregnancies.

How Chiropractic Helps During Pregnancy

Our chiropractor notes that 24 individual vertebrae make up the spine, permitting complex moves such as twisting and bending. They are also protectors of the central nervous system. Once at least two vertebrae become restricted, spinal subluxations are likely. The resulting joint dysfunction blocks the body’s ability to efficiently communicate with its various parts. Being pregnant increases a patient’s odds of experiencing subluxations. Chiropractors find and alleviate them by using chiropractic adjustments.

Prenatal chiropractic services concentrate on two objectives. The therapies employed are especially useful for correcting any musculoskeletal disorders associated with pregnancy, among them sciatic nerve pain, sacroiliac pain, round ligament pain, pubic symphysis pain, and lower back pain. Chiropractic also educates patients on changes associated with pregnancy and helps equip them to better communicate with their pregnancy caregivers.
