Pregnancy is a unique and powerful experience that results in enormous physical, hormonal and emotional changes over a relatively short period of time. Not only does the added weight of the abdomen cause your centre of gravity to change, the influx of hormones softens your body’s ligaments and causes your spine and pelvis to become more flexible.

Our Chiropractors offer gentle techniques to help alleviate your symptoms throughout all stages of your pregnancy. More importantly, Chiropractic care is drug-free so you can rest assured that your symptoms can be improved without any impact on the health of your baby.

After you give birth, the body not only has to recover from the changes made during the pregnancy but also from the effects of the delivery. On top of this, there is the demanding job of caring for a newborn! Your Chiropractor can help correct changes that have occurred during your pregnancy, labour and delivery, as well as assess and treat symptoms that may arise as a result of your new daily tasks, such as breastfeeding, moving car seats, reaching over cots or bassinets, or carrying a child on one hip.
