Chiropractic care during pregnancy:

Having a baby is an exciting, important and amazing time in a person’s life. The physical challenges a mother undergoes with ligament laxity and muscle and joint strain all play significant pressure on a pregnant woman’s spine and pelvis. This can increase spinal tension, cause muscle spasm and pelvic floor muscle weakness in particular the sacroiliac joints can become separated and inflamed, causing a lot of low back and leg pain and discomfort. 60% of all woman experience significant back and pelvic pain during pregnancy. The weight distribution on the neuro muscular areas of the pelvis must be even and in alignment as research indicates that it can result in a 33% reduction in labour time, which is very significant to a pregnant mum. Keeping the pelvis and lumbar spine flexible and moving eases complications during birth and allows an easier delivery.

Chiropractic is a health profession which diagnoses, manages and prevents spinal, bone and muscular disorders and their effects on the nervous system and general health.

Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that the nervous system, consisting of the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body, control the function of every cell, tissue, organ and muscle.

The way our bodies heal and repair is reliant upon a functioning movable spine, posture and most importantly your nervous system.

As the nervous system and brain is the main coordinating system and distribution centre for healing and repair in your body. How your nerves and brain function depends upon how well your spine moves.

Throughout life the human spine and nervous system is subject to stress and deterioration from factors such as repetitive activities, trauma, poor posture habits, lack of nutrition, chemical stress ie; toxins, drugs, emotional stressors and an increasing sedentary lifestyle which is becoming epidemic with technology today.

If there is interference to the delicate nerves and communication of the nervous system controlling the impulses, the stage is set for pain and dysfunction of the body which may manifest in tight muscles, pain, inflexibility, ill health, poor mobility or generally being unwell with little energy to get through your day.

Chiropractic aims to enhance the function of your spinal biomechanics by removing spinal signal interference (subluxations), and enhancing your body’s ability to heal and function at its optimal performance, so you move, feel better, have greater energy, reduce pain and perform to your best every day. Studies show chiropractic are is a safe and gentle way to restore mobility and is an effective treatment for low back pain, headaches and migraines, sciatica, neck and shoulder injuries as well as many other musculoskeletal symptoms.
