Why is chiropractic care so important during pregnancy? At its most basic premise, chiropractic will help you and your nervous system adapt during this major shift. It will help you deal with all the structural, hormonal and emotional stressors. Structurally, chiropractic will help keep your joints moving appropriately so you can make room for your growing baby. When the pelvis and low back vertebrae are moving appropriately, your nerves can freely flow to all your muscles and organs, which may result in less pain and improved movement. Other benefits seen during chiropractic during pregnancy may include headache relief, decrease in low back pain and overall stress reduction.
