Pregnancy is a beautiful journey. It’s a magical time when a family is growing and full of excitement for what’s to come. However, pregnancy can bring with it some unwanted side effects, such as low back pain (LBP). One study of pregnant women found that 76% of women experienced pregnancy-related back pain! With increased gestation comes an increased level of pain, which intensifies most during the third trimester. Unfortunately, many healthcare providers see this pain as temporary and conditional. Since it’s not an urgent threat to the mother or baby, it can be overlooked. With so many women going through pregnancy, a special time in their life, why should their pregnancy-related pain be overlooked? Every mother deserves to enjoy pregnancy without LBP, they deserve better.

Chiropractic care is proven safe for pregnant women and their babies. Chiropractic care that is based around gentle, specific adjustments provides a safe way for women to receive real relief from their pain, but also create the optimal environment for a healthy, happy pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Pain doesn’t just happen—the body is trying to tell us that something is wrong, and women deserve real relief and answers. Chiropractic care is often the missing link in what mother's look for in the best pregnancy possible! On a more personal note, this is where my passion for chiropractic care comes in. I went through a typical pregnancy when I was 21. I had low back pain, I ended up with an epidural and other interventions while in labor. I always felt like I didn't have the birth I dreamed of and I believe every mother deserves that. With my second child, I was in chiropractic school. I felt empowered to take control of my pregnancy and delivery. With chiropractic I had an amazing pregnancy and birth of my daughter. Every mother deserves to have that.
