Pregnancy
At Axis Chiropractic Clinic, we understand that pregnancy can bring about a variety of physical changes and challenges that may lead to discomfort and pain. Our chiropractic pregnancy care is designed to support you throughout your journey, both pre and post-natal.
Common Pregnancy-Related Issues:
- Lower back pain
- Pelvic pain and discomfort
- Sciatica
- Postural changes
- Neck and shoulder pain
- Pubic symphysis discomfort
Here’s how we can help:
- Spinal Adjustments: Our chiropractors perform gentle spinal manipulations to correct misalignments in the spine and pelvis. These adjustments can help alleviate pressure on nerves, reduce pain, and improve overall function, allowing for a more comfortable pregnancy.
- Soft Tissue Therapy: We utilize techniques such as massage and myofascial release to target tight muscles and fascia that may be contributing to discomfort during pregnancy. This therapy helps to reduce muscle tension, enhance blood flow, and promote relaxation.
- Pregnancy-Safe Techniques: Our chiropractors are trained in specific techniques suitable for pregnant women, ensuring that all treatments prioritize the safety and comfort of both mother and baby.
- Kinesiology Taping: We may apply kinesiology tape to support the lower back and abdomen, helping to alleviate discomfort and provide additional support as your body changes throughout pregnancy.
- Posture and Movement Analysis: Our chiropractors assess your posture and movement patterns to identify any biomechanical issues that may exacerbate discomfort. We provide tailored guidance to help you maintain proper alignment and reduce strain on your body.
- Ergonomic Advice: We offer practical recommendations for ergonomic adjustments in your daily activities, helping to minimize strain on your body and promote comfort during pregnancy.
- Exercise and Rehabilitation: Our team creates personalized exercise programmes designed to strengthen the muscles that support your spine and pelvis, improve flexibility, and promote better posture. These exercises are crucial for recovery and ongoing wellness.
- Post-Natal Care: After childbirth, our chiropractors continue to provide support by addressing issues such as postural changes, pelvic floor dysfunction, and recovery from delivery. We help new mothers regain strength and stability as they adjust to their new roles.
By addressing both the immediate symptoms and underlying causes of discomfort during pregnancy and postpartum, our chiropractic care aims to provide lasting relief and enhance your overall well-being.
