How chiropractors can help reduce tension and stress during pregnancy

Pregnancy Can Be Stressful and Visiting a Chiropractor in San Antonio Can Help

Pregnancy is an exciting time of life, but it can also be a time of stress and tension. A woman's body rapidly changes, and there is an increased chance of experiencing aches and pains. Plus, the stress of the lifestyle change of welcoming a new member of the family can take its toll. Luckily, visiting a family practice chiropractor can make a pregnancy smoother and help to alleviate tension and stress. Dr. Phillips at Dr. Phillips Chiropractic Nutrition and Wellness in San Antonio is well-versed in chiropractic care for children and expecting mothers.

How Can Chiropractic Care Help with Tension and Stress During Pregnancy?

Regular chiropractic care at our family practice can help with a misaligned spine or joints, which will surely happen due to the physical changes during pregnancy. Experiencing pain relief from a misaligned spine or joints can help a pregnant woman feel better and less tensed and stressed. Plus, tension held in muscles can be released when adjusting the spine. Chiropractic care can even help ensure that the pelvis is properly aligned and ready for delivery, making the prospect of delivering a baby less scary. Also, chiropractic care can alleviate lower back pain that is associated with pregnancy.

It is safe to visit our chiropractor throughout the entire pregnancy, but it is a good idea to talk to your regular doctor to make sure that it would be a good fit. There are some instances, such as toxemia, vagina bleeding, or placenta abruption or previa, when it is not a good idea to visit a chiropractor during pregnancy. Once the baby comes, consider our practice and pediatric chiropractor for ongoing care. Chiropractic care for children can be very beneficial.
