Pregnancy Care
Chiropractic During Pregnancy
Chiropractic during pregnancy is very gentle and specific techniques. It can be for a range of symptoms, we commonly treat lower back pain, pubic symphysis dysfunction (PSD), pelvic, neck, leg and chest pain that mums-to-be can experience.
We aim to provide expecting mums with practical help, knowledge and skills support to have a more comfortable pregnancy and birth.
In our Pregnancy clinic the priority is to provide professional, unrushed patient-focussed care in a family friendly environment.
Sophia has attended additional post-graduate training to specialise in treating during pregnancy. Very gentle and specific techniques are used to help to reduce pain and discomfort during pregnancy and can also encourage an easier delivery.

Treatment
We are often asked how do we treat through pregnancy as it would be difficult for mums-to-be to lie on their fronts?
We have a specially designed pregnancy pillow that can be lied upon, which is comfortable for mum and baby. It often provides a sigh of relief with almost everyone when lied down upon.

Understanding Your Body During Pregnancy
During pregnancy there are postural and hormonal changes within the body, Relaxin (pregnancy hormone) which is released creating ligament laxity, which alongside the increase in weight can cause the mother’s centre of gravity to shift. Adding extra pressure to certain joints and muscles.

Baby Chiropractic
Birth can naturally be a very stressful event for a baby. Complications or interventions such as forceps and Caesarean Section can be added stressors. These physical stressors can all have an impact on the babies skull, spine and also abdomen and thoracic.
Sophia, our baby chiropractor uses a very gentle and specific touch to release off these compressions and uses techniques to unwind the baby. Babies cannot express the headaches or shoulder aches
