Effective Prenatal Chiropractic

Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy

Women look for pre-birth chiropractic care to adapt to the pelvic and postural changes and also the increased curve in the back because of the abdominal protrusion.

A misaligned pelvis not only reduces the amount of space available for the baby but also makes delivery difficult. In spite of a mother's desire for natural childbirth, medical interventions such as C-section may occur if the baby is posterior or breech. 

Chiropractic care can also reduce labor time, ease nausea, and alleviate joint, back, and neck pain. 

In the event that an infant is back or breech, restorative mediations, for example, C-area may happen, in spite of a mother's want for a characteristic labor. Chiropractic can likewise conceivably lessen work time, ease sickness, and calm the joint, back, and neck agony of pregnancy.

To promote optimal fetal positioning, Larry Webster, D.C. developed a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment called “the Webster Technique”. This technique can be used to prevent breech presentation.

Pediatric Chiropractor

A pediatric chiropractor or baby chiropractor can treat a wide variety of pediatric medical conditions. According to a clinical study, spinal manipulation is effective in relieving infantile colic.

The International Chiropractic Pediatric Organization (ICPA) strives to promote public awareness about chiropractic care for infants, children, and pregnant women. The organization has a directory of pediatric chiropractors. 

Some parents bring their healthy children in for a consultation even though they don't have any problem to seek chiropractic treatment, including encouraging “good neural plasticity (brain and nerve development), to improve immunity, to resolve colic and breastfeeding problems, to support “digestive strength”, to improve concentration, “to promote body balance”, to help resolve allergies, asthma, and bedwetting, and to improve poor posture.

Are Chiropractors Safe?

According to a literature review in 2011, Dr. MF Doyle found that there are no serious adverse events that have been reported in the scientific literature since 1992. With only about 1 out of every 100-200 children experiencing mild irritability or soreness for less than a day after treatment, pediatric chiropractic care is usually safe. Also, up to 14 percent of all chiropractic care were for pediatric patients. 

According to The American Chiropractic Association, children can benefit from seeing an experienced pediatric chiropractor. As children engage in a lot of physical activity, they experience various injuries, falls, blows, stiffness, soreness, neck and back pain. Prenatal chiropractors use gentle techniques and tools such as the Activator tool for expecting mothers. Some experienced prenatal chiropractors offer massage therapies and nutritional advice.
