Why Perinatal Chiropractic Care?

Whether you’re planning to conceive, already expecting, or navigating postpartum life, perinatal chiropractic care addresses the unique needs of women during this incredible period. Women often seek our support for several reasons:

1. Pain Relief:

Pregnancy can bring about various musculoskeletal changes, leading to discomfort and pain. Chiropractic adjustments can alleviate back pain, pelvic discomfort, and other common pregnancy-related issues.

2. Optimizing Birth Position:

Chiropractic care during pregnancy, particularly the Webster Technique, has shown promise in optimizing pelvic balance and potentially aiding in the resolution of breech presentations, as suggested by a preliminary study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (Ref: Vallone S. (2012). “The role of chiropractic in pregnancy: A literature review.” J Chiropr Med, 11(4), 253–259).

3. Postpartum Recovery:

After childbirth, your body undergoes significant changes. Chiropractic care can aid in postpartum recovery by addressing issues such as pelvic floor health and spinal alignment.

Benefits of Perinatal Chiropractic Care:


– Reduced Need for Pain Medication:

Chiropractic care during pregnancy has been associated with a reduced need for pain medication during childbirth, with studies such as Diakow et al.’s research in the Journal of Manipulative Physiological Therapy (1991)

– Sleep

“Pregnancy-specific chiropractic care has been associated with improved sleep quality and overall well-being, as indicated by a study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT) that found pregnant individuals receiving chiropractic adjustments reported significant enhancements in sleep duration and quality (Ref: Haas AV, et al., “Pregnancy and sleep: a cross-sectional survey of sleep in late pregnancy,” JMPT, 2019).”

– Reduced Labour Times:

Research suggests that maintaining proper pelvic alignment can contribute to shorter labor times and a reduced need for pain medication during birth (Ref: Diakow PRP, et al., “Back pain during pregnancy and labor,” J Manipulative Physiol Ther, 1991).
