Pregnancy and Prenatal Care

Seaman Chiropractic- Your Best Friend in Pregnancy & Beyond!

During pregnancy, a woman's center of gravity shifts forward to the front of her pelvis. This additional weight in front, causes stress to the joints of the pelvis and low back. As the baby grows in size, the added weight causes the curvature of her lower back to increase, placing extra stress on the fragile facet joints on the back side of the spine. Any pre-existing problems in a woman's spine tend to be exacerbated as the spine and pelvis become overtaxed, often leading to pain and difficulty performing normal daily activities.

Pregnancy is a natural condition so there is no need to believe that backaches, headaches, leg pain/sciatica, swelling, or morning sickness are normal inconveniences that you must bear during this great time of beautiful change in your body.
Chiropractic care- along with therapeutic massage, acupuncture, and personalized strength training- can help your body adjust to these and other changes your body goes through during pregnancy. Care at Seaman Chiropractic throughout pregnancy can relieve and even prevent the pain and discomfort frequently experienced in pregnancy, and creates an environment for an easier, safer delivery. In fact, most women have found that chiropractic care helped them avoid the use of pain medications during their pregnancy, and studies have shown that chiropractic adjustments help to reduce time in labor.
