Chiropractic care during pregnancy

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

This is a very special time for you and your family. It is also an important time to be proactive in managing your health for an optimum pregnancy, labour and birth.

Why we care for pregnant mums

We love babies and children. We love it even more when they are healthy, because it means they’re happy! Babies and children who eat, sleep, think and move well, are also growing, learning and achieving well. We love helping people reach their full potential in whatever it is they choose to do.

Your baby doesn’t yet know what he or she is passionate about. However, the journey has already begun, and your baby’s development is being influenced by everything you are experiencing right now. Your mood, your diet, activity level, your health and your environment are already helping to shape the person your baby is going to become, and the passions they may pursue.

We are passionate about helping babies to enter the world in the most stress-free manner possible. We love to help and guide you and your baby through the stages of pregnancy, infancy, childhood and beyond. We want the best for our children and yours too.

Excellence in chiropractic care

Our skilled chiropractors understand the important and individual journey of pregnancy and birth. They are qualified and experienced, and absolutely love, assisting women to gain their optimum pregnancy and birth. Our team focus on providing physical, nutritional and emotional care to support pregnant women and their babies. They use safe, gentle and evidence-based techniques to ensure a mother’s body is functioning optimally.

We also continue to monitor growth and development of your baby after birth and at many milestones along the way such as holding head up, sitting, crawling, standing and walking.

The benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy

Our goal is to make sure that your body is strong, healthy and able to adapt and sustain the changes and pressures of pregnancy and childbirth, and to ensure the perfect environment for your baby to develop.

Likewise, managing a healthy maternal diet, reduced exposure to chemicals and pollutants and reduced stress are important as research indicates these can impact the infant microbiome, immune system and neuro-development during pregnancy.

There are many concerns throughout pregnancy and birth that our chiropractors have been able to assist patients such as (but not limited to):

• Low back pain

• Pelvic and pubic pain

• Heartburn and indigestion

• Intrauterine constraint

• Foetal positioning

• Reduced labour time due to correct pelvic alignment
