Pregnancy comes with its own set of aches and pains, and chiropractic care is a great way to help take care of these. Not only can chiropractic care help the pain in your back, hips, and joints, but it also can help establish pelvic balance. That helps to provide your baby with as much room as possible during your pregnancy.
Thank you to Lovelace Health System for sponsoring this guide.
Expecting a baby is an exciting and life-changing journey. Lovelace would like to make your experience as memorable and stress-free as possible by helping you navigate your health care.

Why go to a chiropractor?
A chiropractor can help with nausea, reduce the time of labor and delivery, and reduce lower back pain, neck pain, and joint pain. Chiropractic care may also reduce the need for pain medication during delivery and pregnancy and can even give you a faster recovery time.
During the postpartum period, chiropractic care can help restore your body’s natural biomechanics. Chiropractic care can also help treat any sciatica that is associated with childbirth. I can personally speak to this point. After I had my first baby, my chiropractor was my best friend.
There are so many benefits to chiropractic care, not just for pregnancy and postpartum, but for your whole family as well.
