Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy
Pregnancy brings significant changes to the body, including shifts in posture, weight distribution, and joint stress.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help with:
Lower back pain and pelvic discomfort
Sciatica and nerve-related pain
Postural strain as the body changes
Carpal tunnel symptoms
Maintaining mobility and comfort throughout pregnancy
Starting care early—even while trying to conceive—can help support a more comfortable pregnancy and better overall function.
What to Expect from Family Chiropractic Care
Proper spinal and pelvic alignment can help reduce stress on the body during pregnancy and may contribute to a smoother experience overall.
We offer techniques such as the Webster Technique, which is commonly used to support pelvic balance and positioning during pregnancy.
Care can also continue after delivery to support recovery and postural changes.
Many patients also benefit from combining care with
Massage Therapy for additional support during pregnancy.
Paediatric Chiropractic Care for Infants and Children
Birth can be physically demanding for both mother and baby, and even minor stress on the body can affect how a child moves and functions.
Chiropractic care for infants and children is gentle and adapted specifically for their size and stage of development.
We commonly help with:
Colic and digestive discomfort
Difficulty feeding or nursing
Sleep challenges
Postural concerns as children grow
General movement and development
Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Children?
Yes—chiropractic care for infants and children is extremely gentle and adapted to their needs.
Treatment uses light pressure and age-appropriate techniques, often much lighter than what is used for adults. In many cases, tools like the Activator may be used to ensure precise, low-force adjustments. Our goal is always to provide safe, comfortable care tailored to each child.
