Pregnancy Chiropractic in Allen
Chiropractic in pregnancy is an essential part of your prenatal care. As part of your birth team, our goal at New Directions Chiropractic is to provide the best care to have the pregnancy and delivery you desire.
Moms who receive chiropractic care throughout their pregnancy find they have
- A more comfortable pregnancy
- Improved energy levels
- More room for Baby to grow and position properly
- Shorter labor time
- Fewer interventions
- Faster recoveries after delivery
Specialized Training and Experience
Dr. Harrison is specifically trained to care for pregnant women, using safe, natural adjustments that don’t involve any twisting and don’t put pressure on your baby. We are also well-prepared to care for expectant mothers with special pillows and tables to support your growing baby.
Certified in the Webster Technique, Dr. Harrison has over ten years’ experience using this specific, gentle adjustment to realign your pelvis and relieve ligament stress. The adjustment also maximizes uterine space, allowing optimal development and the ability for Baby to move into proper positioning for birth.
Benefits for Baby and Mom
Proper positioning decreases the chance of breech or transverse presentation, which subsequently decreases the need for C-section or other medical interventions. Overall, the outcome is a more favorable and comfortable delivery.
Adjustments also help Mom’s comfort. Lower back and pelvic pain can make it difficult to move easily or sleep well, increasing your stress level. We decrease your stress by restoring alignment and removing nervous system interference, so you can move, sleep and function better.
Our care continues post-pregnancy. It is equally important to receive postnatal chiropractic care, as your body changes after delivery and you provide for your newborn. Regular adjustments ensure that you can take care of you and your new family in the healthiest, happiest way.
