Is Chiropractic ok for Pregnancy in Geldermalsen?

There is a great deal of debate about the benefits and safety of chiropractic in pregnancy. Some people claim it is dangerous for both the mother and the developing baby, while others say it is safe and offers several health benefits. The truth is, mothers who receive chiropractic care generally have an easier pregnancy and delivery. This article from our Chiropractic office in Geldermalsen will help you find the information you need.


CHIROPRACTIC CARE AND PREGNANCY in Geldermalsen

Just as it is safe and beneficial for infants, toddlers, teens, and adults, chiropractic is also safe and beneficial during pregnancy. There is no danger to the baby and the benefits to the mother are significant. Most Vlaardingen chiropractors who undergo proper training and have the required education to obtain a license and practice are trained to treat pregnant women. Some chiropractors specialize in fitting pregnant women, which means they have more experience, but the majority have the necessary skills and knowledge.

Any woman who is pregnant knows the stress placed on her back, neck, hips, and knees. Even performing everyday tasks becomes a challenge, as the uneven weight distribution can unbalance certain areas. Having regular chiropractic adjustments during your pregnancy will relieve much of the added stress on your spine and can prevent nerves from compressing and causing pain, numbness, or tingling in your back, hips, legs, arms, or fingers. Since your posture is constantly changing as your belly grows, regular adjustments can also help with any imbalances it may cause.


TIPS YOU CAN FOLLOW

Chiropractic adjustments are great for balancing your body and feeling great during pregnancy, but you can do a lot to help yourself. Exercises such as walking and swimming keep blood flowing and your muscles working throughout pregnancy. It's important to stay safe, so talk to your doctor if you were inactive before getting pregnant.

Avoid wearing heels while you are pregnant as you will be less stable and they can speed up any postural imbalances you might experience. Stick to flat shoes as much as possible. Also, pay attention to proper lifting techniques for children or other objects. Always bend your knees and if it seems too heavy ask someone else to lift it for you.

To take pressure off your lower back while sleeping, lie on your side with a pillow between your knees. If you have to sit at a desk during the day, use a footrest to take pressure off your feet and legs and try not to sit for more than 30 minutes at a time without getting up and moving. Schedule chiropractic treatments after you get help with the healing process, as all your muscles, tendons, and ligaments will return to normal.
