Pregnancy Care

Chiropractic care during pregnancy has become a vital part of prenatal wellness for many women, with studies showing that up to 80% of pregnant women experience some form of back pain, and chiropractic adjustments offer effective relief.

At Apex, our approach focuses on creating the most stable environment for your baby’s growth and development by ensuring optimal spinal alignment, especially in the pelvic region. Proper alignment of the spine, and particularly the pelvis, is crucial during pregnancy, as the pelvic bones support the growing uterus, providing essential stability with the help of ligaments and muscles.

Our chiropractic adjustments are gentle, safe, and proven to benefit both mother and baby throughout the pregnancy.

Benefits

The benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy include:

Relief from aches and pains: Up to 75% of pregnant women report reduced back pain through chiropractic care.
Increased mobility: Regular adjustments can improve flexibility, ease muscle tension, and enhance overall movement.
Reduction in intra-uterine constraint: Chiropractic care helps maintain a balanced pelvic alignment, which can prevent the uterus from being restricted during pregnancy.
Preparation of the pelvis and uterus for a smoother birth: Proper pelvic alignment can ease the baby’s descent and reduce labor time.
Prevention and treatment of breech positioning: Chiropractic adjustments, including Webster’s Technique, are an effective, non-invasive approach to turning breech babies.
Shorter labor duration: Studies suggest chiropractic care can reduce labor time by up to 25%.

Webster’s Technique

At Apex, our chiropractors are highly trained in Webster’s Technique, a gentle, non-invasive, and painless method designed to help turn breech babies in utero. Research has shown that this technique has a success rate of over 80% in helping breech babies turn to the correct position for delivery. It is widely recommended by obstetricians and midwives, and we frequently receive referrals from local healthcare providers due to the proven success of this treatment.
