Pregnancy Chiropractic at Herndon Chiropractic & Acupuncture Care

Chiropractic Care and Pregnancy

woman having neck adjusted by chiropractorMany people don’t immediately think of chiropractic care for pregnancy—but they should! Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, gentle, hands-on approach to keeping your spine aligned and your nervous system functioning properly. And with all the changes your body is going through during these months, identifying and correcting subluxations is important for keeping you comfortable and giving your baby the best space possible to grow and develop.

Our Approach to Care

Dr. Gurutrang at Herndon Chiropractic & Acupuncture Care has been caring for pregnant women for over forty years. He has the experience and expertise to locate areas of misalignment and adjust them in the way that will be most comfortable for you.

As your center of gravity shifts and the hormone relaxin causes ligaments to loosen, the strain on your back can cause significant pain. Pregnant mothers love chiropractic because it’s safe for their baby, 100% natural and doesn’t involve drugs of any kind.

Many studies have confirmed that receiving regular chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy can lead to shorter labor, with less pain and fewer medical interventions. A less traumatic birth benefits both you and your baby!

Frequency of Care

All of our care is customized to each patient’s needs, so you may need to be adjusted more or less frequently than another patient. Some patients see us once a week, while others come in once every few weeks. It depends on how your pregnancy is progressing..

We recommend beginning care as soon as you know you’re pregnant, so we can begin correcting any mechanical imbalances before weight gain makes your body work harder. We also recommend getting care after delivery—at this time, your ligaments are still loose from relaxin, and we can quickly restore normal pelvic geometry to help get you back to your before-baby body.
