Prenatal Chiropractic in Louisville

Chiropractic adjustments may improve uterine function, balance the pelvis, and reduce tension to pelvic muscles and ligaments. When a pregnant mother's pelvic balance is restored, her uterus and pelvis function better. This reduces undue stress to mom's ligaments and muscles, bringing more ease and comfort to her pregnancy and the birth process. Pelvic balance may also allow the optimal space for baby to grow throughout pregnancy and line up in the best possible position for birth, which may contribute to safer, easier birth outcomes - amazing!

Chiropractic stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system and helps the body relax. It's incredibly important to remember that whatever mom is feeling emotionally, baby is feeling too, as they are very much in sync while baby is developing in the womb. Keeping mom relaxed and helping her deal with stress throughout pregnancy with chiropractic care will benefit both mom and baby.
