Pregnancy is a wonderful, wondrous moment in a woman's life, but it can also be taxing on her body. Lower back pain, sciatica, and pain in the feet, ankles, knees, and other joints are common among pregnant women. Dr. Chris Walker is a chiropractor who specialises in all-natural pain relief and wellbeing. Pregnancy adjustments are totally safe for both mother and baby because Chiropractic Treatment During Pregnancy is holistic and does not involve medication.
A woman's physique changes dramatically throughout pregnancy to accommodate the growing baby. The mother's centre of gravity shifts to the front of her pelvis as the baby grows, putting additional strain on the lower back and pelvic joints. Pregnancy weight gain causes the curve in the lower back to widen to the point of causing considerable pain.
The spine is where the nerves that travel to the rest of the body begin. When the nerves in the spine are squeezed during pregnancy, they become inflamed and cause pain. Sciatica is a disorder that is usually triggered by pregnancy and causes pain to spread from the lower back down the legs.
Dr. Walker and other prenatal chiro treatments provide safe and effective individualised therapy throughout pregnancy and after birth. Dr. Walker will do a comprehensive evaluation in order to decide the best course of action for each patient. He is familiar with unique adjusting methods for expecting mothers.
Although some pain relievers are safe for pregnant women to take, pregnancy changes may minimise the need for drugs. Chiropractic Treatment During Pregnant treatments have been demonstrated to lower tension and anxiety, which is beneficial to both the mother and the infant, in addition to relieving pain without the use of drugs.
After the baby is born, follow-up therapies can assist re-align mom's body and hasten the transition to a healthy post-pregnancy physique. Dr. Walker performs adjustments on infants and children because birth is traumatic for them as well.
