Learn How An Altamonte Springs Prenatal Chiropractor Alleviates Pain And Other Benefits

By Nelson Clodfelter


As a woman goes through pregnancy her body will be subjected to all manner of physiological changes. It is understandable that most women are reluctant to use any type of prescription drugs to relieve temporary symptoms of discomfort and pain. From morning sickness to back pain, women can often find relief with chiropractic care in Altamonte Springs.

Women usually gain anywhere from twenty to fifty pounds during their pregnancies. As the fetus grows stretched ligaments can become painful and restrictive. There is a long list of pregnancy related pain that can be relieved with regular visits to the chiropractor.

As the weight of pregnancy forces changes in her posture, chiropractic spinal adjustments are often effective in providing pain relief. In addition to pain relief, regular care from a chiropractor during her pregnancy will result in optimal room for the fetus to grow and eventually get into the vertex position for a safe delivery.

All chiropractors have been trained to see pregnant women in their clinical practice. Chiropractors who choose to focus their practice on caring for pregnant women and women suffering from infertility may seek some higher chiropractic education. The designation of Webster certification is one designation of this higher education.

Larry Webster, DC, who is now deceased, devoted his career to developing his technique to bring the pelvis into balance. The technique is believed to help the fetus get into the best position for delivery. This is achieved with manipulations that reduce the stresses imposed on the uterus and ligaments, in a sense a more relaxed growing environment for the fetus.

After thirty seven weeks of gestation it can be problematic if the fetus is in a breech or posterior position. Chiropractors believe that applying the Webster technique can bring a baby into a vertex position, the best position for birth. For optimal prenatal care, a woman should coordinate her obstetric and chiropractic care to create a complementary team that does everything possible to achieve the best outcome for her and her baby.
