Pregnancy

Chiropractic care offers a safe and effective treatment option for pregnant women, providing relief from pain and discomfort resulting from physical changes during pregnancy, including back pain, pelvic pain, and headaches.

Throughout pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes significant changes, such as weight gain, hormonal shifts, and changes in the center of gravity. These changes can place stress on the spine and pelvis, leading to pain and discomfort. Chiropractic care can help alleviate such pain by realigning the spine and pelvis while reducing inflammation and muscle tension.

Chiropractors utilize manual adjustments, or spinal manipulations, to realign the spine and ease pain caused by misalignments and other neuromuscular issues. Additional therapies like massage, stretching, and exercises may be employed to enhance pain relief and improve function.

Dr. Neil Crane is specifically trained in the Webster technique, which is a chiropractic sacral analysis and diversified adjustment. This technique aims to reduce sacral subluxation and SI joint dysfunction, facilitating neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis. By correcting sacral subluxation, potential difficulties during labor, such as dystocia, caused by inadequate uterine function, pelvic contraction, and baby mal-presentation, may be positively affected.

Chiropractic care also offers benefits for pregnant women in preparation for delivery, ensuring proper pelvic alignment to reduce the risk of complications and promote a smoother, less painful delivery.

It's important to seek a chiropractor with experience and training in treating pregnant women, collaborating with other healthcare providers for a comprehensive approach to treatment. Pregnant women should consult with their obstetrician before seeking chiropractic care.
