Natural Relief for Pregnancy Discomfort: How Chiropractic Care Supports Expectant Moms

From those first flutter kicks to preparing the nursery, pregnancy is a beautiful time (and one of life’s grandest adventures). The prenatal period, however, can also bring some significant challenges, including discomfort, sleep issues, discomfort while walking or standing, and digestive issues like constipation. While these symptoms are common, yes, they don’t have to be your new normal.

A Gentle and Effective Solution for Pregnancy Discomfort

As many women, understandably, want to avoid taking medication during pregnancy, prenatal chiropractic care is a safe and completely natural way to address uncomfortable symptoms and other challenges during pregnancy.

Using gentle methods (including the Webster Technique), we help restore balance and alignment in your spine and pelvis. This approach accomplishes two critical things: it alleviates discomfort and also facilitates a smoother, more efficient labor and delivery.

Specialized Care for Every Stage

Fully recognizing the unique needs of pregnant women, our team uses specialized tables and cushions to ensure you’re completely comfortable and supported during each visit. Our chiropractors tailor care to your specific stage of pregnancy, prioritizing both your safety and that of your baby.

“After more than 30 years in practice, I’ve seen how proper spinal alignment can transform a woman’s pregnancy experience,” says Dr. Lisa Lanzara-Bazzani. “When the nervous system functions without interference, the body can better adapt to the incredible changes of pregnancy.”

Benefits That Go Beyond Pain Relief

By getting adjusted regularly during pregnancy, you may experience reduced back, hip, and joint pain, improved posture and spinal alignment, and better sleep quality. Many patients also report shorter labor times, less back labor, and greater mobility as their bodies change.

Postpartum Recovery and Beyond

Chiropractic care is also highly beneficial during the postpartum phase. After childbirth, your body is healing, and it’s common to experience lingering pain, misalignment, or stress. We offer gentle, effective care to support your recovery. Many new moms choose to bring in their newborns for their first gentle adjustments as well.

“Postpartum chiropractic care can also help address breastfeeding challenges and digestive concerns that many new mothers often face,” says Dr. Tatiana Bazzani.
