There are so many benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy; having a nervous system that is functioning at 100% during this important time is huge! A clear nervous system during pregnancy enhances baby development and uterine function. Below are some of the most common reported benefits:
- Shorter labor and delivery time
- Increased potential for natural childbirth
- Proper pelvic balance & alignment for mom
- Allows optimal positioning for baby (decrease breech presentation) lessening potential c-section
- More comfortable and overall healthier pregnancy (less nausea, back pain, sciatica & headaches)
- Improved recovery
- Increased comfort during labor and delivery (less need for pain medication)
The Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health states chiropractic care improved the quality of life for pregnant patients. The American Journal of Pain Management says posture affects and moderates every physiological function from breathing to hormone production. A woman’s body undergoes so many changes in a very short nine months time, keeping everything lined up allows the body to adapt to all the changes in the best way possible.
These are just some of the many benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy, which don’t even include all of the benefits for your developing baby in utero or for the baby after birth!
