Pregnancy Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is safe and gentle for both mother and fetus throughout pregnancy, effectively treating posture, hormonal, and physical changes that cause pain and discomfort.
Why Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy?

Through a number of gentle techniques, chiropractic care corrects misalignments by inducing the hormone relaxin, which encourages muscles and ligaments to relax naturally. Chiropractic treatment during pregnancy reduces pain and fatigue, as well as stabilizes mood.
