Pregnancy is one of the most precious life events for a mother. We also understand that the health of a pregnant woman is vitally important because the care we offer affects both mom and child. Proper nervous system and spinal function is crucial to the development of your baby and essential to the well-being and comfort of mom.
Benefits of Chiropractic
During pregnancy, a properly aligned spine and pelvis allow for a smoother labor and delivery and a quicker recovery. The chances of various forms of interventions are also decreased when you have a properly aligned pelvis and a fully functioning nervous system. Dr Mike is one of only a handful of local Chiropractors that is certified in the Webster Technique/Analysis thru the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA).
By ensuring that the pelvis and spine are in proper alignment and motion, chiropractic care helps to ensure that the developing baby has plenty of room to grow within the womb. By maintaining this proper alignment and motion throughout pregnancy, chiropractic care can also improve the ability of the expecting mother to have a safe and natural birth process – which is something that is extremely vital to the health of both mom and baby. The less interventions the better the outcome!
The modern birth process is often one of the most traumatic events that a person will endure in their life. We believe that birth trauma is one of the most underpublicized medical issues that is not being addressed in our medical system today. Unfortunately today, many health care providers also choose to look at pregnancy as a “medical condition” or a “pathology” rather than the incredibly safe and natural process that it is. A woman’s body is designed perfectly for the birth process, and difficulties typically only arise if mom is functioning at less than 100%.
Safe and Effective
The Webster Technique is very specific and restores the integrity and the alignment of mom’s pelvis. This helps with the aches and pains that come with pregnancy. It is common to have sacral, back and round ligament pain during pregnancy as your baby is growing and your body is constantly changing due to the baby’s growth and hormonal changes that fluctuate throughout pregnancy. Dr. Mike can help alleviate your pain by keeping your body functioning at its peak.
Birth is a natural process, but it can be an intimidating and sometimes even scary journey. Allowing Dr. Mike to align the structure of your hips and spine while balancing your nervous system will keep your body balanced during the birth process and let your body function the way it was meant to.
