Is is safe to get adjusted during pregnancy?

Of course it's safe to get chiropractic when pregnant! Chiropractic care is extremely safe to get whilst you are pregnant.

Pregnancy can be tough on the body’s skeletal structure, especially as the baby grows and gets heavier. There are a lot of postural changes occurring as the body is going through big changes and developments. Chiropractic is fantastic at helping to keep the spine moving well and in alignment.

It also helps with better positioning for the baby. Having your spine checked by a chiropractor helps to ensure that your pelvis is sitting correctly to allow optimum room for your baby to grow and move. Chiropractic care whilst pregnant has also been shown to shorten labour time, I mean, who wouldn’t want that!

All chiros are trained in working with pregnant mothers, and we have specific techniques that ensure that they are comfortable throughout their pregnancy, especially as they get bigger!
