How does chiropractic care help the pregnant woman?

James Diesen asked:


Because of the additional weight and stress on the framework of the body in pregnant women, chiropractic adjustments can help lower the incidence of pain in the low back and legs, and between the shoulder blades. In some cases, fewer headaches and problems with nausea and elimination may also result. Many chiropractors care for expectant mothers in the regular course of their daily practices.

Most importantly is that chiropractic helps the expecting mother by improving nerve system function.  Chiropractic has been based for over 100 years on correcting interference to the nervous system known as subluxations.  With a properly functioning nerve system free of subluxations it is easy to see how many aspects of this important time for an expectant mother will be made easier.  Many women rely on chiropractic care as a regular part of their pre-natal routine.

“The newly added additional weight tends to alter the body mechanics of a pregnant woman, I have worked with a lot of pregnant women and they have gotten great results,” said Dr. Steven Read, Clinic Director of Ortega Chiropractic Clinic in Jacksonville. “In fact I receive a lot of referrals from OB/GYNs, because they realize that chiropractic treatment is safe and effective,” he added.
