Pregnancy & Postpartum Chiropractic Services

Dr. Hannah at Live Aligned Chiropractic is a dedicated family chiropractor focused on supporting your journey to whole-body wellness at every stage of life. Whether navigating pregnancy or recovering after welcoming your little one, chiropractic care can play a vital role. Dr. Hannah is here to provide support from the first trimester through postpartum recovery, so you feel your best for motherhood.

The Benefits of Adding Chiropractic Services To Your Prenatal Care

Integrating chiropractic care into your prenatal health program can improve your comfort and your baby’s well-being. While there’s no specific timeline for starting to see a chiropractor during pregnancy, discussing it with your healthcare provider can help determine what’s best for you.

Reduced Aches & Pains

Your body goes through a massive transformation during pregnancy. These changes can result in lower back pain, pelvic alignment issues, and sore muscles. As a prenatal chiropractic expert, Dr. Hannah can help you address the causes of your discomfort with stretching exercises and chiropractic adjustments to ensure proper pelvic and spinal alignment. This alignment not only eases your discomfort but can also provide a more comfortable environment for your baby.

Reduce Anxiety

It is natural to be anxious about the arrival of a new life. However, unnecessary discomfort can heighten your stress, leading to sleep issues and a lack of energy. Seeing a licensed chiropractor can help reduce stress, allowing you to fall asleep faster and have a more relaxed and healthy pregnancy for you and your baby.

Fetal Positioning

A well-aligned pelvis allows your baby more space to move into the ideal position for delivery, which can contribute to a smoother labor process. Many expectant mothers report feeling more stable and mobile as chiropractic adjustments promote fluid motion in the hip joints, enhancing overall mobility.

The Benefits Of Adding Chiropractic Services For Postpartum Care

After giving birth, your body undergoes significant changes that can lead to discomfort and pain. Labor can affect your pelvic alignment and cause muscle tension, making everyday activities like walking, nursing, and sleeping challenging. Incorporating chiropractic care into your post-partum routine can provide numerous benefits that help you recover more effectively.

Ease Pain and Discomfort

One of the primary advantages of seeing a pregnancy chiropractor after childbirth is pain relief. Many new mothers experience lower back pain and pelvic misalignment due to the physical demands of caring for a newborn. A skilled chiropractor can perform gentle adjustments and suggest stretches that promote proper alignment, helping to alleviate these discomforts and restore your body’s balance.

Improve Your Physical Recovery

From skeletal and spinal manipulations to nutritional coaching and guided stretches, Live Aligned Chiropractic will help you ease your body into its new postpartum state.

Boost Your Mental and Emotional Health

In addition to physical relief, chiropractic care can also support your mental and emotional well-being. The transition into motherhood can be overwhelming, and stress can heighten feelings of anxiety or even lead to postpartum depression. Regular chiropractic visits can help reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and boost your overall mood, creating a more positive environment for you and your baby.

Holistic Approach to Healing

Dr. Hannah combines spinal adjustments, nutritional guidance, and gentle exercises to help you adapt to your new body. If you need stress relief post-pregnancy or to address various sleep problems as you recover, she will design treatments to address your concerns.
