Common Effects of Pregnancy:

During those nine months, the body undeniably undergoes many changes. Your belly rapidly grows to accommodate the growing fetus. As this happens, your center of gravity shifts toward the front of the pelvis, potentially leading to hip, pelvis, and back pain. As your baby continues to grow, the curve in the lower spine increases, furthering tension and stress on your body.

As you enter the later months of pregnancy, your body releases relaxin, a hormone that loosens the ligaments in the pelvis, makes more room for your baby to grow, and prepares your body for giving birth. Yet, this hormone also comes with a few downsides; It can cause imbalances, increase your risk of falls, and increase pain. However, chiropractic care offers a non-invasive approach to address your pain and help make this time as special and comfortable as possible..
