- Stay active during pregnancy – Continue exercising and enjoying activities without hip, back, or pelvic pain holding you back
- Work comfortably – Sit through long meetings or workdays without constant discomfort
- Care for your family – Lift your toddler out of the crib and play on the floor without pain
- Set yourself up for postpartum success – How you feel and function with a new baby to care for is just as important as your pregnancy journey

Common Questions About Prenatal Chiropractic
Do prenatal chiropractic adjustments hurt?
No, prenatal chiropractic adjustments are gentle and designed specifically for pregnancy. Our techniques use light pressure and keep you in comfortable positions throughout. Most moms find the adjustments actually provide relief.
When should I start care?
The earlier, the better! Think of it like going to the dentist—you don’t wait until there’s a problem. Starting early in pregnancy allows us to be proactive and help you stay comfortable and active throughout your entire pregnancy journey.
Can adjustments turn my breech baby back?
Great question! Our goal isn’t to turn your baby directly—that’s obstetrics. We focus on creating normal pelvic alignment, which gives your baby the best chance to get into optimal position naturally.
Once your baby is head-down, continuing care won’t flip them back because it was your normal alignment (not the adjustments) that allowed them to turn.
Do I have to continue after birth?
Not at all! Many moms choose to continue because they feel so much better, but there’s no requirement. We do offer a complimentary postpartum visit to check how you’re doing after delivery, but ongoing care is completely your choice.
Can I discuss costs with my husband first?
Absolutely! About half of our prenatal patients want to discuss the investment with their partner first, and that’s completely normal. We can even start with a single adjustment today and apply that toward whatever care plan you decide on together.
