Perinatal Chiropractic Care
Imbalances in the spine and pelvis can cause many of the physical
discomforts pregnant women frequently experience. Specific
spinal adjustments safely decrease these spinal stresses, restoring
natural balance to the pelvis and nervous system resulting in
greater overall comfort and facilitating as easier, safer delivery.
These spinal adjustments will also benefit the fetus. If the pelvis
is out of balance, the baby may be prevented from moving into an
optimal position for birth. Chiropractic adjustments remove
interference to the nervous system, thereby allowing the uterus to
function at its maximum.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Newborns should be examined soon after birth, to remove the
spinal nerve stress that frequently occurs, and spinal check-ups
should continue as an infant develops. Sitting, crawling and first
steps are all milestones that should be accompanied by a pediatric
chiropractic examination.
As a child grows, physical activities become more intense and
the likelihood of spinal misalignments increases. Regular chiro-
practic check-ups, and gentle spinal adjustments if necessary,
allow the nervous system to grow unimpeded. Chiropractic
adjusting procedures are modified to fit a child's size, weight and
spinal condition.
