Perinatal Chiropractor in Delray Beach, Florida

Empowered Pregnancies and Supported Postpartum 

Pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period are transformative stages that profoundly impact family health and well-being. During pregnancy, women experience significant physical, hormonal, and emotional shifts to support their baby’s growth. These changes, while essential, can sometimes feel overwhelming and disrupt daily life.

Smiling Pregnant Woman

Unfortunately, the conventional healthcare system often treats pregnancy as a condition to be managed rather than a journey to be nurtured and empowered.

This medicalized approach has left many women grappling with physical discomfort, anxiety, fatigue, and other challenges during pregnancy.

Happy Baby

At Soma, we prioritize two key pillars of holistic care for pregnant and postpartum mothers: Chiropractic Adjustments and Empowerment.

Regular chiropractic care supports the body’s adaptation to pregnancy’s changes by optimizing nervous system function, promoting balance, and meeting the needs of both mother and baby. A well-regulated nervous system enhances a mother’s ability to cope with stress, resulting in a more comfortable pregnancy and better preparation for a smoother, safer, and shorter delivery.

Chiropractic care during the prenatal and postpartum periods can be transformative, reducing tension, boosting energy, supporting optimal baby positioning, and preparing the body for natural childbirth. It also helps alleviate common pregnancy symptoms like nausea, heartburn, insomnia, fatigue, low back pain, and round ligament discomfort. Research shows chiropractic care can reduce the need for medical interventions during labor and delivery. By enhancing the body’s natural function, chiropractic care fosters health and resilience for both mother and baby.

Are chiropractic treatments good for pregnant women?

Chiropractic treatment is safe and effective for pregnant women. Plus, it is recommended by many in the healthcare field. With many changes taking place in a woman’s body, aches and pains are bound to emerge. Chiropractic treatment addresses instability and abnormal pressure to relieve pain and ensure a healthy and enjoyable pregnancy. Mom will be able to conduct her regular routine without feeling uncomfortable.

How soon should a chiropractor be seen while pregnant?

It is best to begin having chiropractic treatments before any signs of pain present themselves. Pain is the last symptom to appear and the first to go away, meaning that once you’re in pain, your body has already been distressed for some time. Once achieving proper posture and alignment, the comfort level will improve tremendously. So it is best to schedule a chiropractor appointment before your first trimester so that you can enjoy your journey to motherhood.

Can miscarriage occur if a chiropractic adjustment is made?

A chiropractic adjustment will not cause a miscarriage because it is a natural, gentle treatment that is safe for the mother. Spinal manipulation will help a new mother enjoy less pain and better function, leading to a healthier pregnancy for both mom and baby.

How can back pain be relieved while pregnant?

Natural back pain relief methods during pregnancy include stretching, massage, acupuncture, and chiropractic adjustments. When you contact your chiropractor, they can suggest all of the options they provide.

Is a painful pelvis normal for pregnant women?

A painful pelvis is normal during pregnancy because of the pelvic changes that take place so that a baby can be delivered effectively. Even though pain is present within the pelvis, this does not have to lead to a pain-filled pregnancy. When you attend your chiropractic appointments, pelvic pain is reduced so you can return to your normal life and focus on what really matters.
