Prenatal Chiropractic Care
A woman’s body goes through various physical and emotional changes throughout pregnancy. Routine chiropractic care works hand in hand with medical care to make pregnancy as comfortable and safe as possible. Chicagoland WellMed Center is proud to serve as a leading prenatal chiropractor for Alsip, IL, providing the attention and care women need to experience a safe and healthy pregnancy.
Why Seek Prenatal Chiropractic Care?
There’s a reason many women experience back pain while carrying a baby. It may seem like just a natural part of pregnancy, which is why so many women suffer needlessly. The pain stems from the release of a hormone known as relaxin.
Relaxin helps loosen the pelvis ligaments in preparation for the birth of the baby. That’s a necessary physical change, but it also causes the pelvis and spine to shift. This changes the bodily alignment for most women, which also changes their center of gravity. The result is not only back pain but also neck, nerve, and pelvic pain.
Visiting an experienced prenatal chiropractor is essential for women who want to remain active, healthy, and comfortable throughout pregnancy. Gentle yet effective chiropractic techniques are used to improve alignment in the musculoskeletal system and ease pain throughout the body.
The Webster Technique
At Chicagoland WellMed Center, the Webster Technique is used for expectant women. It was designed for use during pregnancy and is one of the safest ways to maintain body alignment during this time of physical transformation.
The Webster Technique gently adjusts and aligns the pelvis, releasing soft tissue in surrounding muscle groups. It is performed by our experienced chiropractors who understand the sensitivity of a woman’s pelvic region while carrying a child. The technique can maximize comfort for women during pregnancy while helping the body prepare for childbirth.
