Women often wonder if it is safe to have pregnancy chiropractic adjustment during pregnancy. This article will discuss the safety of chiropractic adjustments for pregnant women and why some doctors recommend them.
The safety of chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy
Chiropractic treatment for vertigo is safe for pregnant women. It’s recommended that you receive care from a chiropractor during your pregnancy—and it may be very beneficial to do so. Chiropractic adjustments can help with pregnancy-related symptoms such as back pain and headaches, and they also provide relief for other issues that arise during pregnancy such as gestational diabetes and nausea. The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) states that “there is no evidence linking spinal manipulation with adverse fetal outcomes.”
The AAP recommends against any form of spinal manipulation during pregnancy due to its potential risks to both mother and baby. However, since there’s still some uncertainty surrounding this topic even among doctors who specialize in providing prenatal care (such as OB-GYNs), it’s important to know what your doctor believes before making any decisions about treatment options yourself!
How chiropractic adjustments help pregnant women
Chiropractic treatment for vertigo can help with several symptoms, including:
- Back pain. Pregnant women are more likely to experience back problems than other women and the extra weight they’re carrying can make it worse. A chiropractor can help ease that pain by adjusting your spine, which will relieve tension on the nerves in your back and improve circulation throughout your body.
- Pelvic pressure syndrome (PPS). This condition occurs when there is too much pressure on one side of the pelvis—which may result from an injury or arthritis—and causes pressure on other organs like ovaries or kidneys as well as constriction in blood vessels leading up into said organ(s). Chiropractors have learned over time how best to treat this condition so that patients get relief from their symptoms without having to go through surgery first!
Allowing a chiropractor to perform specific pelvic adjustments
The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) states that pregnancy chiropractic adjustments are safe during pregnancy. They can help with pain and other pregnancy symptoms such as backaches and leg cramps. They may also make it easier for your body to push out the baby during delivery, which means that you’ll be able to get home sooner after giving birth.
If you have concerns about whether or not chiropractic adjustments are safe during your pregnancy, talk with a doctor or midwife who specializes in obstetrics before making any decisions about using a chiropractor for labor and postpartum recovery assistance as well as breastfeeding support if needed.
