Thank you for considering MoveStrong to support you through this pivotal experience.
During pregnancy, most women experience neuromuscular (physical) and biochemical stresses related to hormone changes, weight redistribution and the demands of the growing baby. These challenges are well managed throughout pregnancy with chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and Naturopathic Medicine. Pregnancy massage serve to make labour easier by decreasing pain and relieving stress.
Prenatal Care at MoveStrong focuses on reducing the pregnancy-related stresses and changes that Moms deal with, and to ensure that baby has the optimal space in the womb to develop unencumbered. This generally involves addressing imbalances of the joints and muscles of the pelvis and lower back, as well as feet, ankles, knees and hips that support mom’s changing frame. The ligaments around the uterus connect into the pelvis, and any tension or imbalance in them can lead to intrauterine constraint.
Pregnancy causes common problems that can be helped with Chiropractic
Dr. Sidenberg has trained with the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association, and is certified to perform The Webster Techique, used to help babies turn themselves into optimal position in the womb.
After the baby arrives, the lower back issues so common to the later stages of pregnancy tend to migrate up to the upper back and neck, as caring for and feeding a newborn places new stresses on the upper spine.
Chiropractic adjustments are a safe, natural, and drug-free way of relieving the tension that can build up in the joints of the lower back, pelvis, mid back and neck, especially as hormonal changes lead to joint looseness and laxity that make it easier for joints to go out of alignment.
Prenatal massage and postnatal massage are both excellent ways to help relieve the aches and pains before and after the baby is born, and to make labour easier as well.
Gentle and caring chiropractic care is also valuable for the newborn infant, who may suffer some stress to the nervous and musculoskeletal systems while in the womb or during delivery.
Naturopathic care ensures that moms-to-be are getting the right nutrition, the right supplements, and the right advice when it comes to pre-conception planning, pregnancy, childbirth, and children’s health. Good health for the generation to come begins here!
