How Can Chiropractic Care in Pregnancy Help Ease Discomfort?

When a woman is pregnant she typically gains more than just the weight of her child. She gains extra water weight, increases blood mass, and she gains extra pounds to support the pregnancy in general. This is why the typical weight gain can vary between 20-30 pounds in an average pregnancy even though a baby only weighs around 7 pounds on average. This extra weight alone can cause stress and pain on the body to carry around.

A pregnant woman also has hormones that are acting to prepare her body for delivery and to allow her body to grow to accommodate the baby in the womb. These hormones can cause pain in the joints. It is no wonder why pregnant women search for pain-relieving methods that will not harm the baby. The good news is that a chiropractor who is trained in prenatal care has effective methods of reducing pain and even decreasing labor time with regular visits!

Chiropractic care can also reduce other common complaints that many pregnant women have including heartburn, headaches, sleeplessness, and nausea. A chiropractor who is trained to specifically treat the pregnant body will be familiar with how to reduce these common and severely uncomfortable side effects.
