The Importance of a Chiropractor in Prenatal Care

Chiropractic care isn't intended only for back and neck pain. At Ponte Vedra Wellness Center, we provide excellent health and wellness services for all the phases of your life. Our prenatal chiropractic services are a great way to stay in shape while pregnant. Keep reading to learn more about these services in Nocatee, Ponte Vedra Beach, and the surrounding communities.

Why Do I Need Prenatal Chiropractic?

During pregnancy, the body goes through many changes. As the baby grows, the spine will be inevitably pushed out of alignment. When the spine is not properly aligned, it can cause a host of physical problems. Not only can this misalignment lead to aches and pains, but it can also affect neurological functioning, which has a huge impact on your mental health as well.

Our chiropractor is trained to work with pregnant women and can perform safe and gentle spinal adjustments for you. During these sessions, you will be placed on an adjustment table that was specially designed for expectant mothers. This ensures that you will be comfortable throughout your adjustment.

What Other Services Are Offered?

In addition to spinal adjustments, our facility also provides massage therapy, which can be very beneficial during pregnancy. As the body changes and the spine shifts, the muscles of the neck and back will start to overcompensate. This can also be caused by the weakening of the core muscles as the baby stretches the abdomen. A prenatal massage can help relieve this tension and also help manage stress as well.
