Pregnancy can be a magical time, I say that genuinely. It's probably the closest thing to magic a human being can experience, other than seeing a performance by the Blue Man Group. They’re something else, huh? While it's a time filled with magic, it's not without its challenges. As a chiropractor in Oxnard, CA I know that our expecting patients can be a bit apprehensive about continuing chiropractic treatments while pregnant. They worry if their chiropractic adjustments will be safe for the baby in addition to the myriad of changes their body is going through.
-Is chiropractic care during pregnancy safe?
-Why should I have chiropractic care during pregnancy?
-What are the benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy?
-Is chiropractic care beneficial for the growing baby?
To that I say, there couldn’t be a better, and more critical, time to receive chiropractic care. One of the biggest challenges during pregnancy is the onslaught of pain and discomfort as the body rapidly changes to house another life. That pain shouldn't distract from preparing for the arrival of a child and from enjoying the experience of being pregnant. This is when the connection between mother and child begins and we don’t want to be distracted by pain and a growing sense that this baby is destroying our life.
