Pregnancy Chiropractic at
Featherstone Family Chiropractic & Wellness
We want our bodies to function at as high a level as possible at all times. This becomes even more important during pregnancy. Chiropractic is safe, gentle, and all natural care for our moms-to-be.
With hormonal and weight changes, pregnant bodies can be under a tremendous amount of stress. This can create pain and discomfort, especially as the pregnancy progresses. Adjustments help ensure the spine, pelvis, and sacrum are in alignment to relieve pain and pressure. This allows your baby to move freely and get in an optimal birthing position.
How We Help You
Creating a child is a lot of work and can be stressful on the body. Being able to support our moms through that process, and set them up for the best possible delivery, is really beneficial.
The initial consultation will focus on the mom’s concerns.
- Is this the first birth? If not, how did the others go?
- Do you have any fears or reservations about giving birth?
- What’s your birth plan?
- Do you have any specific pains now, breathing problems, or heartburn?
- Any other areas of discomfort?
When a woman comes in with back pain, we have to determine is the problem in the sacrum, or improper weight distribution, or something else? Is there some activation needed? Dr. Jess addresses the source of your pain, allowing you to enjoy this special time in your life.
Skilled but Gentle Care
Dr. Jess is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) and is certified in the Webster Technique, an adjustment method developed specifically for pregnant women. She is also currently pursuing a PROnatal Fitness Performance Training Specialist Certification to better empower women through the pregnancy journey and beyond through exercises specific for pregnancy, labor and parenthood preparation.
We recommend starting care preconception through the postpartum stage to ensure your nervous system is healthy. The frequency of your visits will depend on what your body needs during each stage of your journey. Our goal is to help you have a healthy pregnancy, faster and easier labor, and a safer delivery for you and your baby.
