Ladies, are you thinking of having a baby? Are you making plans for your next pregnancy, or considering having your first child? Did you know that chiropractic care can be an important element of your prenatal and postnatal health plans? We’ll help you get your spine and central nervous system in tip-top shape first, before you conceive.
Why is this of benefit? First, aligning your spine will help place your womb in the ideal positioning. This means you may have an easier time conceiving, as well as carrying your body. Chiropractic adjustments shift your body into the ideal position for you to conceive and enjoy a healthy pregnancy. Because chiropractic adjustments help ease your spine, hips and central nervous system into optimum shape, you’ll not only find conception to be possibly easier, but carrying and delivering your baby, as well. Plus, you can minimize potential stress on your baby’s developing spine.
In this three-part blog series, we’re talking about the stages of pregnancy (conception, gestation, delivery and post-partum) and how chiropractic care can benefit each.
First, for conception: your body is preparing for new life and the changes that you’ll undergo to carry and bring forth that life. When your body, mind and spirit are in optimum condition, you’ll encourage the conception process. Whether you’re conceiving naturally or going through fertility treatments to conceive, you’ll find that a pain-free, well-adjusted spine helps make your womb (and your entire self) ready for conception. You’ll sleep better, breathe better and have better mobility, as well.
