Chiropractic Treatment During Pregnancy in Falls Church, VA
The emotional, physical, and chemical changes of pregnancy are significant, but chiropractic can help support your body as it prepares for childbirth and motherhood. Many expectant mothers seek chiropractic care to help with symptoms like:
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Abdominal pain
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Anxiety
- Insomnia
- Digestive upset
- Constipation
- Swollen feet and ankles
- Tight and sore muscles
Palmercare uses special techniques tailored to the needs of pregnant patients. With these techniques, we can adjust the spine gently, alleviating the aches and pains of pregnancy. Two of the techniques we use are Webster’s technique and Logan’s technique.
The purpose of Webster’s technique is to relax and balance the round ligaments and align the lumbo-pelvic region of the body for a more comfortable pregnancy and childbirth.
Logan’s technique also brings the body into proper alignment, but its main use is to balance the nervous system, allowing blood and nerve flow to shift from the hands and feet to the core, where your baby is growing and developing.
During your appointment, your chiropractor can provide instruction to you and your significant other on stretches, exercises, and positions to practice at home to promote balance and strengthen your body as you prepare for childbirth.
