Prenatal Chiropractic Care and Lower Back Pain

The prenatal period is an important time for a woman to monitor her physical condition and well-being. Whether you regularly visited a chiropractor before your pregnancy or have concerns about lower back pain that has recently developed, you should consult with a chiropractor familiar with how the bodily transitions you are experiencing may aggravate your body's musculoskeletal symptoms.

Important Considerations

During your pregnancy, your body will experience alterations in its endocrines and physiology. Some of these transitions may lead to lower back pain caused by a misaligned spine or joints. These include:

• An increased curve on your back
• An abdomen that protrudes
• Changes in your posture or pelvis

Visiting a chiropractor at Lone Tree Chiropractic is a safe and effective option for women who experience new or recurring pain in the spine, joints, or lower back. If you feel increased pain or experience difficulty in areas such as the lower back, a prenatal chiropractic visit may alleviate discomfort and reduce pain. Treatments and adjustments of misaligned joints will reduce stress on nerves at a time when your body, skeleton, and posture have changed to accommodate the child within you.

By some estimates, approximately half of the women who carry a child to term experience back pain during the prenatal period. More than half may encounter back pain during labor. Scheduling regular visits with the chiropractor at Lone Tree Chiropractic allows our professional team to treat the common symptoms that many women experience during pregnancy, as well as assess and adjust any complications or new areas of pain that may arise.
