Visiting a chiropractor while pregnant is perfectly safe.

 Visiting a chiropractor during pregnancy is not only completely safe but also offers many benefits. As professional chiropractors based in Poole, we are specially trained to treat pregnant women and specialise in prenatal care.

Our chiropractic care focuses on the maintenance of the spinal column and related nerves and discs, promoting joint alignment and bodily balance without a need for drugs or surgery. For pregnant women in particular, chiropractic care provides the comfort needed to enjoy the nine months spent creating life.

During pregnancy, it is not uncommon for women to suffer with Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD) or Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) thanks to a combination of the baby’s weight, changes in posture and newly unstable joints. Our chiropractic solutions are recommended by Pelvic Partnership and help to ease this pain, providing increased mobility of the joints and improved strength of the pelvis.

What are the benefits of visiting a chiropractor during pregnancy?

• Give your baby room to grow

A misaligned pelvis has the potential to restrict the amount of space available and therefore may obstruct your growing baby’s movement. By visiting your local chiropractor, you can rest assured that your baby has the room it needs to grow and develop within the balanced and aligned environment your body provides.

• Promote a natural birth

Visiting a chiropractor during pregnancy could pose the difference between a natural birth and a potentially more complicated delivery. Our prenatal specialists can help to align your pelvis and as a result, help to improve the chances of your baby remaining in the best position – rear-facing and head down – for a natural birth.

• Relieve your own pain

Growing a baby is hard work! Visiting a chiropractor while pregnant will help to ease those neck, hip, back and joint pains and provide the balance and mobility your body needs.
