Pregnancy

Chiropractic care can be a wonderful complement to traditional healthcare throughout your pregnancy. I specialize in treating people before, during, and after pregnancy as well as infants and children of all ages.

I am certified in the Webster Technique by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association.

I am also a trained childbirth educator by the Boston Association of Childbirth Education.

Top 5 Reasons You Should See a Chiropractor During Pregnancy

1. Gentle, drug free relief of aches and pains. Common complaints include low back pain, headaches, buttock pain, pubic symphysis dysfunction, leg cramps, upper back pain, round ligament pain, wrist pain, hip pain, etc...

2. To prepare your pelvis for childbirth. By balancing the pelvis and getting it functioning properly, birth can be easier, safer, and faster.

3. To help your baby get in an ideal position for birth. Breech babies, occiput posterior babies, transverse babies, and more, chiropractic care helps get baby in the best position for birth by balancing and reducing tension in your pelvis.

4. To relax. Pregnancy can be stressful on the mind and the body. With pregnancy pillows, most people can lie face down comfortably on the chiropractic table throughout their pregnancy. Treatments are comfortable, relaxing, and soothing.

5. Another perspective on your prenatal care. Your midwife or OB is your primary care provider, but a chiropractor can offer additional advice on pain management, exercise, diet, prenatal vitamins, sleep, and stress management. Chiropractors also serve as a gateway to numerous other perinatal resources such as doulas, acupuncturists, lactation consultants, prenatal yoga classes, mental health care providers, and more.
