Pregnancy Chiropractic
at Roots Chiropractic
Prenatal and Postpartum Care
Whether you are trying to conceive or are currently expecting, prenatal chiropractic care ensures that your neuro-spinal system is functioning optimally, facilitating a healthy and comfortable pregnancy.
During pregnancy, your body undergoes remarkable yet drastic physical, chemical, and emotional changes—all of which depend on optimal nervous system function. Ensuring your body is prepared and functioning at its best can help you adapt to these changes with minimal discomfort, stress, and dysfunction.
Our Roots Chiropractic doctors have advanced training in prenatal care. Dr. Lauren is Webster Certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association and is also a certified BIRTHFIT Leader.
Benefits of Prenatal Care
Multiple research studies confirm that women who receive regular chiropractic care during pregnancy experience less pain, safer and easier births, and shorter labor times. They also require fewer interventions.
The Fourth Trimester
The fourth trimester refers to the first three months after childbirth, a period during which Mother and Baby experience many drastic changes. For the baby, the fourth trimester is about adapting to life outside the womb and developing essential skills like feeding, sleeping, and bonding with the mother. It’s a time of rapid growth and change.
For the mother, the fourth trimester involves physical recovery from childbirth, hormonal changes, and adjusting to the new demands of caring for a newborn. It also includes emotional and mental health challenges, as many new moms experience fluctuating emotions and the physical strain of new responsibilities.
Chiropractic care during this period can support mothers in healing, helping with issues like back pain, posture, and stress management, and providing a more comfortable and smooth transition into the role of parenthood.
