Pregnancy and Infant Chiropractic at
Goodman Healthcare
Are you expecting, or do you hope to be soon? Chiropractic care from Goodman Healthcare is an indispensable part of a healthy pregnancy. Studies show that it can decrease your labor time by up to 60% when you’re regularly adjusted. Your nervous system is ready to fire smooth muscle contractions during labor and delivery. The nervous system coordinates the activity of every single cell, from conception to birth.
By ensuring your nervous system is working optimally, your pelvis will be structurally aligned so that your delivery can be safe and as short as possible.
Many moms know that pregnancy isn’t the most comfortable time in their life, but stress doesn’t have to be your new nine-month “normal”! As your belly grows to accommodate your baby, your center of gravity will shift. It’s common to experience problems such as
- Acid reflux/Nausea
- Sleeping troubles
- Low back pain
- Hip pain
- Swelling in the ankles
- Headaches
We’ve helped our expecting moms with these issues and much, much more. In fact, we’ve even adjusted women who were planning on becoming pregnant soon and simply wanted to ensure their body was in the best possible shape.
Some people incorrectly believe that a chiropractor can turn your baby if it is in a breech position. We work with medical providers to address these types of issues, but we know that when your nervous system is operating at 100%, oftentimes baby is able to position themselves for an ideal birth on their own.
Our certified maternal support specialist will talk about your history, including past pregnancies and any concerns or expectations you have. You’ll receive a thorough chiropractic examination. When it’s time for your first adjustment, you can lie facedown on our tables. Most moms love that they can lie on their stomach after months of not being able to! Our techniques for expecting moms are gentle yet highly effective.
Birth is traumatic for your baby, too. To get out of the birth canal, their nervous system endures a lot of stress. Adjusting your newborn takes no more pressure than you’d use to check the ripeness of a tomato at a grocery store. To the untrained eye, it might look as if we’re resting our fingertips on your baby. We’ve had babies fill their diapers immediately after their adjustment, sleep through the night, get over colic or be rid of their “failure to thrive” diagnosis.
WE HAVE A NEWBORN ADJUSTMENT VIDEO COMING SOON. WOULD LIKE TO INCLUDE A LINK TO WATCH IT HERE.
