HOUSTON PREGNANCY CHIROPRACTOR

Jul 15

Over 6 million children are born in the United States each year, with more than 14% of these deliveries including some form of difficulty. So, not only is labor uncomfortable but there are always risks involved. Exercise, appropriate nutrition, supplementation, and chiropractic care at our Houston chiropractic clinic are all strategies to reduce these risks.

 

When a woman becomes pregnant, her body undergoes immediate changes. All of these changes are intended to promote the life that is developing within the woman. Pregnancy, as lovely as it is, can bring a certain amount of discomfort or suffering for the mother. Morning sickness is fairly prevalent throughout the first trimester. This is caused by an increase in hormone levels and placental development.

 

Because of the significant spike in hormone levels and the expansion of the placenta, the liver is working much harder, which can put a lot of strain on the organ. By obtaining therapy at Peak Potential Family Chiropractic - Houston Heights, we will try to minimize any stress on the neurological system and optimize the function of the liver, compensating for its increased workload.

 

Headaches are another common symptom of pregnancy during the first trimester, but they can continue the entire pregnancy. There are various possible causes for this, including neck and upper back misalignment(s), dehydration, stress, and sugar and caffeine withdrawal. These headaches can be considerably decreased or avoided with chiropractic adjustments, good nutrition, and a healthy sleep cycle.

 

The "baby weight" begins to appear during the second trimester, and the mother's body undergoes physical modifications to handle this weight. If you already have spinal misalignments, pregnancy may aggravate the symptoms, producing headaches, acid reflux, constipation, diarrhea, or soreness. The pelvis shifts forward during pregnancy, affecting the lower back curve. This is normal, but if you already have a misalignment in your lower back or spine, it could cause significant pain and consequences.

 

When a woman goes into labor, the true benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy become apparent. The average length of labor is ten and a half hours. First-time mothers who receive chiropractic care should expect a 24% reduction in labor time, while mothers who have had children can expect a 39% reduction in labor time. Most importantly, women who have been receiving regular care are less likely to require medicines during birth because their bodies have been better prepared for the experience.

 

Total Prenatal Care

Total prenatal care can minimize or even avoid complications during pregnancy. When a woman's body is optimally functioning, the pregnancy and delivery process will go much more smoothly. At our chiropractic clinic in Houston, we offer a variety of services to help you have a healthy pregnancy and delivery. We encourage you to schedule an appointment with us as soon as you know you are pregnant. This way, we can start you on a path to a healthy pregnancy and delivery from the very beginning.

 

Your total prenatal care should include :

  1. Chiropractic adjustments
  2. Massage therapy
  3. Nutrition counseling
  4. Exercise and stretching recommendations
  5. Lifestyle changes

 

The goal of chiropractic care during pregnancy is to keep the mother's spine and pelvis aligned, thereby reducing intrauterine constraint. This allows the baby to develop and grow in the optimal position for delivery. By keeping the mother's spine and pelvis aligned, we can also help relieve many of the common discomforts that are experienced during pregnancy, such as back pain, headaches, nausea, carpal tunnel syndrome, and rib pain.

 

At Peak Potential Family Chiropractic - Houston Heights, we are committed to providing you with the best possible care during your pregnancy. We will work closely with you and your obstetrician to ensure that you have a healthy, safe pregnancy and delivery. If you have any questions about our services or would like to schedule an appointment, please contact us today.
