Pregnant Women Should Learn How An Altamonte Springs Prenatal Chiropractor Alleviates Pain


By Nelson Clodfelter


Pregnancy from beginning to end causes multiple physiological changes in the body of the woman. Wanting to protect their unborn child, many women refuse any type of prescription medication to relieve their symptoms. From swollen ankles to heartburn, the aches and pains of pregnancy can be relieved with chiropractic care in Altamonte Springs.

It is common for a woman to gain as much as fifty pounds during her pregnancy. With the ever increasing size of a pregnant belly, the ligaments supporting the uterus stretch, which may result in pain or at least discomfort. Swollen ankles and leg cramps are a few more of the many aches and pains a woman endures during pregnancy.

As the weight of pregnancy forces changes in her posture, chiropractic spinal adjustments are often effective in providing pain relief. In addition to pain relief, regular care from a chiropractor during her pregnancy will result in optimal room for the fetus to grow and eventually get into the vertex position for a safe delivery.

All chiropractors are trained to care for pregnant women. Some choose to focus their practice exclusively on pregnant women and women suffering with infertility. These doctors may choose to earn higher chiropractic designations. One such designation is Webster certification.

Larry Webster, DC, is responsible for developing the Webster technique. The objective is to achieve pelvic balance to improve the chances of the fetus being in the best position before delivery. The technique uses analysis and specific manipulations to relax the uterus and surrounding areas, reduce stress and achieve pelvic balance.

After thirty seven weeks of gestation it can be problematic if the fetus is in a breech or posterior position. Chiropractors believe that applying the Webster technique can bring a baby into a vertex position, the best position for birth. For optimal prenatal care, a woman should coordinate her obstetric and chiropractic care to create a complementary team that does everything possible to achieve the best outcome for her and her baby.
