Can you get chiropractic adjustments when you are pregnant? During pregnancy, most women experience a number of neuromuscular and biochemical problems which respond favorably to gentle, safe, noninvasive chiropractic care. These include: release of the hormone relaxin causes muscle and ligament relaxation allows joints to more easily misalign increased weight gain increased demand and fatigue on spinal and pelvic muscles increased stress on spinal and pelvic ligaments increase in lumbar and thoracic spinal curves which further increase the above increased joint stress and thus occurrence of vertebral and sacroiliac joint misalignments change in weight distribution increased demand and fatigue on spinal and pelvic muscles increased stress on spinal and pelvic ligaments increase in lumbar and thoracic spinal curves which further increase the above increased joint stress and thus occurrence of vertebral and sacroiliac joint misalignments The above changes primarily affect the pelvic and spinal ligaments, muscles, joints and other supportive soft tissues. These changes cause sprain/strains of pelvic and spinal structures, as well as alteration of the normal spinal curvatures and spinal biomechanics. The result is an increased stress on the body leading to pain and discomfort. http://www.dcdoctor.com/pages/rightpages...i use to work for a chiropractor way back when I was a teen ager and pregnant women would always come in yes Yes! and some have tables with a cutout for your growing belly. Yes, its a great way to deal with sciatic pain without the danger of drugs. Absolutely!! It think that getting adjusted is one of the main reasons my pregnant patients feel so good through out their pregnancy. It restores the joint positions that are often pushed out by the growing baby, as well as from the hormonal changes that are occurring in the body. |
