Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pregnancy can be a wonderful, exciting time but for some, it can also bring discomfort as the body adjusts to your changing posture and weight distribution. For others the extra physical challenges of pregnancy may mean that old injuries re-emerge. There are a few pregnancy related conditions which would contra-indicate chiropractic treatment, but these are rare. As a rule it is my personal preference to delay the start of chiropractic treatment until the 12 week mark, not because there is any evidence that it could be detrimental prior to this point, but more to err on the side of absolute caution. If however, you are in significant pain please do call me so that we can discuss your options. I have undergone additional training covering treatment during pregnancy including seminars with Gail Tully of Spinning Babies, The Pelvic Partnership (a great resource for mamas experiencing PGP, pelvic girdle pain), Liz Koch, Jeanne Ohm (Webster technique) and Elisabeth Davidson to name a few. I love to work with new and expectant mums and can’t wait to meet you!
