Pregnancy may be an exciting time in someone’s life, however, it can also cause pain and discomfort. At Roselle Center for Healing in Fairfax, VA, we provide prenatal chiropractic care to offer relief and make your pregnancy journey more enjoyable. Before visiting us, read about some benefits of prenatal chiropractic care below!

Pain Relief  

Pelvic pain is common in pregnancy, as the body is helping accommodate for the growing baby. Our chiropractors can utilize the Webster technique to gently relax and open up the pelvis, which provides more room and increases comfort for both mom and baby.  

Sciatica Treatment  

As the abdomen grows bigger during the later stages of pregnancy, it puts more pressure on the sciatic nerve. This nerve originates in the lower back and runs down the buttocks and into each leg. When this nerve is pinched, it can cause extreme pain, numbness, and pressure. Our chiropractors can massage the surrounding muscles and relieve pressure off of the nerve to reduce your symptoms. 

Nausea Relief 

Nausea is more common during early pregnancy. With chiropractic treatments, we can help provide relief from morning sickness, motion sickness, and general nausea without prescription pills that could harm the baby. The techniques also help rebalance the inner ear, which can reduce nausea and vomiting.

Reduced Anxiety and Stress 

Pregnancy can also be a stressful and anxious time for new mothers, especially if this is their first baby. Chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and other types of manual therapy can help mothers relax and understand changes in their bodies. In addition, regular visits also help improve sleep quality, which is important for the development of the baby.

Optimal Fetal Position

Our chiropractors can ensure that the baby is in the optimal position for delivery. When the baby is in the ideal position, it can help with a smoother delivery and reduce labor time.
