First, chiropractic care can help to relieve low back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain – common areas of discomfort during pregnancy.
Second, chiropractic care can help to improve your overall posture, which can be a real challenge during pregnancy as your body changes and adjusts to the increased stress.
Third, chiropractors can provide helpful advice on how to manage other common pregnancy discomforts like nausea and fatigue.

There are a few different things that can cause lower back pain during pregnancy. One is simply the extra weight that you’re carrying around. The weight gain during pregnancy can bring to light any pre-existing structural issues. As your baby grows, your centre of gravity shifts and puts more strain on your spine and back muscles. Additionally, the hormone relaxin loosens your ligaments and joints in preparation for childbirth, which can also contribute to back pain.
Of course, every pregnancy is different and some women experience worse back pain than others. If you’re struggling with back pain, there are a few things you can do to help ease the discomfort.
If lower back pain is a concern, don’t hesitate to make an appointment with one of our chiropractors to put together a chiropractic care plan.
