Chiropractors are experts keeping the spine properly aligned so that clear messages can travel to and from the brain and throughout the body. They provide non-invasive care to determine issues that affect your body’s movement, impact your quality of life, alleviate pain, and support your optimal wellness during fertility, pregnancy, post-partum and beyond. Many families like chiropractic adjustments because they are a completely drug-free path to helping your body heal naturally.

The WOMB provides chiropractic care for families at all ages and stages.

 

Fertility

Chiropractic care facilitates the clear transmission of nervous system messages to and from your reproductive system, thereby enhancing fertility and addressing infertility issues. It can also significantly improve the prospects of success in medical procedures such as IVF.

Pregnancy + Birth

Chiropractic care during pregnancy ensures that communication between your brain and body remains unobstructed, free from tension or distortion. This promotes comfort throughout your pregnancy and contributes to a smoother birthing process.

Some of the benefits of care during your pregnancy include:

  • Controlling symptoms of nausea
  • Alleviating discomfort in the back, pelvis, pubic bone, neck, and joints, which was found beneficial by 84% of women.
  • Facilitating a smoother labour experience and potentially reducing labor duration by up to 40%.
  • Decreasing the need for pain medication in labour by 50% reduction
  • Creating an environment in the uterus that encourages the baby to assume a head-down, optimal position.

In the case of a breech presentation (baby is head up), a chiropractic adjustment known as The Webster’s Technique can help restore balance in your pelvis, reducing stress in your uterus and supporting ligaments. This balanced state has been clinically demonstrated to facilitate the transition of breech babies into a head-down position. The Webster Technique has shown an 82% effectiveness rate in achieving this1.

Infants and Children

When adjusting your newborn, your chiropractor will only use pressure equal to that which you would be comfortable using while pressing on your eye. The child is adjusted by hand and/or an adjustive device while either lying on a pillow or on you! It is simple, safe and effective – and is often done while sleeping – it is that gentle! In infants, the nervous system controls growth and development which is the optimal time to take care of it.

Some children’s conditions that improve with chiropractic care include:

  • Allergies
  • Asthma
  • Bed wetting
  • Colic
  • Constipation
  • Ear infections
  • Headaches

Families

The WOMB provides chiropractic care for families at all ages and stages.  Families may seek chiropractic care for various reasons including:

  • Pain Relief: Chiropractors can help alleviate a wide range of musculoskeletal issues, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint discomfort.
  • Injury Recovery: Chiropractic care is often sought for injuries resulting from accidents, sports, or other traumatic events. It can aid in the healing process and reduce pain.
  • Improved Mobility: Chiropractic adjustments can enhance joint mobility and overall flexibility, making it beneficial for both active individuals and those with limited mobility.
  • Chronic Conditions: Chiropractic care can be used in conjunction with traditional medical treatments for chronic conditions like arthritis and fibromyalgia to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
  • Stress Reduction: Chiropractic adjustments can help reduce stress and tension, contributing to an improved overall sense of well-being.
  • Preventative Care: Families may choose chiropractic care as a proactive approach to preventing health issues and maintaining their health over the long term.
  • Athletic Performance: Athletes often use chiropractic care to enhance their performance, reduce the risk of injuries, and aid in recovery.

Ultimately, the reasons for seeking chiropractic care can vary from one family to another, and the choice often depends on individual health needs and goals.
