Atención prenatal y posparto en Madison, Wisconsin
Gentle, safe support for a more comfortable pregnancy.
Pregnancy is a remarkable time of change. As your body adapts to support your growing baby, shifts in posture, ligament tension, and spinal alignment can lead to back pain, pelvic discomfort, sciatica, and trouble sleeping. Prenatal chiropractic care uses light, pregnancy-appropriate adjustments and soft-tissue work to keep your spine, pelvis, and nervous system functioning at their best—so you can move, rest, and feel better throughout every trimester.
Why Prenatal Chiropractic?
-
Reduce common pregnancy discomforts: back and hip pain, sciatica, round-ligament tension, rib pain, headaches.
-
Optimize pelvic balance: helps reduce biomechanical stress on muscles and ligaments that support the uterus.
-
Support better movement & posture: gentle alignment encourages easier daily activity and improved comfort at work or rest.
-
Improve sleep quality & energy: less pain and tension can make it easier to settle and stay asleep.
-
Promote overall well-being: when the spine and nervous system function well, the whole body tends to function better.
Is Prenatal Chiropractic Care Safe?
Yes—when performed by a chiropractor trained and experienced in caring for pregnant patients. We use gentle, pregnancy-specific positioning, avoid pressure on the abdomen, and modify techniques as your body changes. If you’re under obstetric care for a high-risk pregnancy, we’ll coordinate with your provider as needed.
