Pregnancy can put a great deal of stress on the body, and it's likely that your body will go through many changes before you give birth. Carrying your baby can put stress on your spine, and hormonal changes other problems. At Bighorn Mountain Chiropractic and Acupuncture in Sheridan, WY, we can help you adjust to these changes and prepare for delivery.
Why Use Prenatal Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is an all-natural and holistic form of care that seeks to treat the whole person rather than just the symptoms. We do not rely on prescription drugs that could have bad side effects, such as addiction. This allows us to help provide treatment that may be more effective and safer than other traditional methods employed.
The Potential Benefits of Chiropractic Care during Pregnancy
Carrying a baby can change your center of gravity, which may cause your spine to become misaligned. When you receive chiropractic care during pregnancy, our chiropractor can help you adapt to your changing body. This can help ease discomfort and keep you comfortable.
It's likely that chiropractic treatments may benefit you in many ways. Seeing a chiropractor may help you to:
- Reduce sciatic pain
- Sleep better at night
- Avoid headaches
- Experience less nausea
- Reduce swelling
What to Expect When You See a Chiropractor
Prenatal chiropractic care isn't all that different from the treatments that patients that aren't pregnant receive. Like any initial chiropractic visit, our chiropractor will start your appointment with a physical assessment. This will help them identify areas that need treatment.
Our chiropractor will use techniques like spinal manipulation to correct issues. However, our chiropractor will prioritize the health of you and your baby throughout the process. A prenatal chiropractic adjustment is gentle, but can still be an effective way to relieve pain and treat misaligned joints.
You can start seeing our chiropractor early in your pregnancy, and you can continue to receive chiropractic care throughout your pregnancy. Not only can our chiropractor treat the symptoms you experience throughout each trimester, but he can provide treatments that may help your body to prepare for delivery.
