Do Chiropractors treat pregnant women?

Yes! There are several physiological and endocrine changes that occur in preparation for creating the environment for your developing baby. Due to pelvic changes, postural adaptations and increased back cure, misalignments of the spine or joints may occur. It is important to seek Chiropractic care during pregnancy to establish pelvic balance and alignment. Intrauterine constraint may develop due to misalignment of the pelvis. This condition may reduce the amount of room available for your developing baby. This misalignment of the pelvis may also make it difficult for your baby to get into the best possible position for delivery. The nervous system is the master communication system to all the body systems including the reproductive system. Keeping the spine aligned helps the entire body work more effectively.

The Taschler Center also has a staff of massage therapists who specialize in prenatal massage. Feel free to call our center at 703 293 2939 to schedule your next massage or chiropractic appointment during your pregnancy!
