Pregnancy Chiropractic in Mendota Heights
All the many changes your body goes through during pregnancy—weight gain, hormonal changes, shifting center of gravity—can cause discomfort, pain, and mobility issues that distract you from enjoying this special time. Research shows that regular chiropractic care during pregnancy improves your comfort level, reduces labor and delivery times, and reduces the incidence of medical interventions.
How Chiropractic Care Helps
By restoring optimal alignment and movement to the spine, we reduce stress on your nervous system so your body is better able to function and your baby can find the best position and grow properly. And without all that discomfort, many of our moms-to-be experience better sleep, too!
Chiropractic care can also help reduce or eliminate the following:
- Back pain
- Sciatica
- Numbness
- Tingling
Our Full Body Approach
We have pregnancy pillows to make it comfortable for you to lie face-down—some of our patients want a few extra minutes just to lie in that position to take pressure off their back. Other patients prefer to be face-up for their adjustments, and that’s fine too!
Our priority is your comfort, and we tailor care to your needs and preferences. We use very gentle techniques to ensure the spine and pelvis are aligned, which helps create enough space for babies to get into the optimal position for birth. Our massage therapists are also well-versed in prenatal massage to help ease soft tissue tension.
Postpartum Care
Chiropractic care also helps with post-labor and delivery recovery. We usually recommend you come in a week or two after delivery and then come in so we can help restore optimal spine, hip, and pelvis alignment so you can heal properly.
