Pregnancy Care

at Thrive Family Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a safe, gentle and holistic form of healthcare during pregnancy. The body experiences many challenges during this amazing time of growth. This can lead to an array of symptoms such as; back pain, sciatica, headaches, carpal tunnel, hip pain, and overall discomfort. Pregnancy can also worsen or exacerbate chronic symptoms you already had before pregnancy. There may even be obstacles in your journey to become pregnant and carry a pregnancy full term.

Chiropractic care has even been known to help babyies get in the optimal head down position. Mom’s under care during pregnancy report shorter labor times, improved birth outcomes, and less need for medical interventions.
