This question comes up often from expectant mothers once they find out they are pregnant.  Expecting mothers want to avoid any risks that may cause harm to their unborn child, and there can be a misconception by family members, friends, or health care providers that Chiropractic adjustments are unsafe while pregnant.

This is simply not true in the vast majority of cases.   In fact, chiropractic care may be an important type of care which helps manage the aches and pains that come with pregnancy as the body changes since certain medications for pain cant be taken while pregnant.

There are many hormonal and physical changes that females experience during pregnancy. Some of these will have an impact on posture and comfort. As the baby becomes heavier, the center of gravity shifts, and your posture adjusts accordingly.
