For Parents

Chiropractic during pregnancy, and for the parents doing the lifting

August 4, 2026

Care during pregnancy

Pregnancy changes how weight sits through the spine and pelvis, and low back and hip pain is a common result. The goal of care is to help manage that discomfort as the body changes.

Positioning is adjusted so you are comfortable throughout, and we will walk you through exactly what a visit involves before anything begins.

For the parents doing the lifting

Lifting a toddler, hauling a car seat, scooping up the diaper bag. It is repetitive loading nobody trains for, and it lands on backs, necks and shoulders.

If something has been aching for a week or two and is not settling on its own, that is worth having looked at.

Questions first

We are happy to answer questions and explain what care involves before you book anything.
