Chiropractic care is important during pregnancy to help balance the nerve system thus allowing for a healthier pregnancy. Chiropractic care also balances the pelvis through working with specific muscles and ligaments connected directly and indirectly to the uterus
Having optimal biomechanical function of the spine and pelvis is an important component to your pregnancy and birth. Less tension in the pelvis means less tension for the growing fetus, and improved blood flow to the baby.
The doctors at Cherubini Chiropractic are certified in the Webster's Technique, which is a gentle and safe way of analyzing the pelvis and adjusting it.
To find out more about the Webster's Technique, please read this ICPA article:
