Back Pain During Pregnancy
|
Your spine is used to holding up the weight of your body, but once pregnant, your spine must carry the weight of a rapidly growing baby over a long period of time. Since you have a growing newborn inside of you, your center of gravity shifts forward adding stress to the spine. This added stress can cause lower back pain, migraines and headaches, nausea, insomnia, and other symptoms that can lower your quality of life during pregnancy.

It is common for pregnant women to complain about lower back pain during pregnancy. Many of those soon-to-be mothers just deal with the pain. This back pain is due to the spine working overtime to adjust for the added weight of your child. If you experience enough back or spine pain during pregnancy, it is best to get an examination by a professional. The added stress on your body can cause issues during pregnancy. It is also possible to cause further problems in labor.
The state of your body has a lot to do with how your delivery will be. A body that is stressed, worn out, and misaligned, could result in complications during delivery. This could result in anything from a painful delivery to problems with positioning the baby correctly.
Studies have shown that women who received chiropractic care during their third trimester of pregnancy experienced more comfort during pregnancy and delivery. It has also been shown that women who received chiropractic care required less than half the amount of painkillers compared to women who did not receive chiropractic care.

Chiropractic Care For Infants, Toddlers And Teenagers

Whether your infant, child, or teenager needs chiropractic care, our team is happy to restore your family back to wellness. What most people don’t realize is that infants and children are in just as much need of chiropractic care as adults. Slow or traumatic births and c-sections leave infants susceptible to a wide range of possible ailments.
Infants have very delicate spinal nerves, so if misalignments or subluxations put pressure on those nerves it could interfere with the body during all the phases of growth and development. Chiropractic care for infants and children can help treat these potential problems. Our team at Spinal Correction Center helps correct these problems through effective adjustments to properly align your child’s spine.
