Pregnancy is clearly a time of great physical and chemical changes in a woman's body.
This not only influences at the level of weight gain or alteration of your gravity field, but your spine becomes more flexible.
Monitoring and control of this possible tension in the ligaments often leads to a change in fetal positioning before delivery, helping to facilitate a natural delivery.
Chiropractic and Pregnancy
Chiropractic helps the reproductive system, as well as the other systems of the body, to receive, without interference, the transmission flow coming from the nervous system through the spinal column.
This results in a spine free of subluxations and a nervous system without interference.
Subluxation caused by mechanical, chemical or emotional stress is very common during pregnancy.
Whatever the cause, the result is an interference in the transmission of nerve impulses that can adversely affect both the mother and the development of the fetus.
Sciatica or lumbago, so common in this period, caused to a great extent by the aforementioned changes in gravity, positioning and vertebral flexion, are a nuisance for daily activity, as well as leg heaviness and general gastrointestinal discomfort.
Chiropractic is a natural way to help the body to reduce as much as possible the manifestations of this stage, with the objective of making these months more bearable, being able to continue with the normal activity routines.
By adjusting the pregnant woman's spine, vertebral subluxations or slight displacements of the vertebrae that alter the function of the nerves are reduced, thus allowing the self-regulation of the body so that the woman can continue to be as active as possible during her pregnancy.
The chiropractor will monitor to make sure that both the pelvis, which is particularly affected throughout the process, and the vertebrae are in balance and functioning in a unified manner.
The techniques used and the fact that no medication is required make chiropractic safe for both the mother and the fetus.
A dysfunction in the lumbar and/or pelvic area can create tension in the pelvic ligaments, which support the uterus and consequently influence in a bad positioning of the baby, causing problems that can lead to cesarean section.
