Our Approach & Techniques

• We use age-appropriate, low-force techniques designed specifically for pregnant women and growing children.

• For prenatal care, we may incorporate the Webster Technique, a specialized adjustment method focused on the pregnant pelvis to reduce tension and optimize balance. Wikipedia+2Healthline+2

• Every treatment is customized to your stage of pregnancy or your child’s age and physical condition.

• Safety and comfort are our top priorities — all adjustments are gentle, well-monitored, and adapted to each patient’s needs.

What to Expect

1. Consultation & History
   We’ll start by understanding your health history, current symptoms or concerns, and any relevant medical details.

2. Postural & Spinal Assessment
   We evaluate your spinal alignment, pelvic balance, posture, and nerve function.

3. Gentle Adjustment & Supportive Care
   Treatments may include specific spinal adjustments (very light), stretches, soft tissue work, and exercises you can do at home.

4. Ongoing Wellness Plan
   We’ll recommend follow-up visits and supportive practices (like posture habits, gentle movement) to maintain your results.

Important Considerations & Safety

• Chiropractic care during pregnancy is generally considered safe, but there are scenarios where adjustments may be contraindicated (e.g. vaginal bleeding, premature labor, placenta issues). PMC+2American Pregnancy Association+2

• Always consult with your obstetrician or medical provider before beginning any new therapy during pregnancy.

• In pediatric chiropractic, treatments should always be gentle, non-invasive, and delivered by a chiropractor experienced in pediatric care. PMC+2Deintegrative Healthcare+2

• While many patients report benefits, scientific evidence is still developing, and chiropractic care should complement — not replace — conventional medical care. PMC
