Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy: A Natural Way to Support Your Health in Dunedin, FL

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey—but let’s be honest, it also comes with its share of discomfort. From back pain and sciatica to poor sleep and pelvic misalignment, expectant mothers in Dunedin, FL often experience physical challenges as their bodies adapt to support a growing baby.

At Bach Chiropractic, we specialize in gentle, pregnancy-safe chiropractic care designed to ease those discomforts, support optimal fetal positioning, and promote a healthier, more comfortable pregnancy experience.

Why Consider Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy?

As your body prepares for childbirth, it releases the hormone relaxin, which loosens joints and ligaments. While this is helpful for delivery, it can also lead to instability in the spine and pelvis—resulting in back pain, hip pain, and increased tension.

Chiropractic care helps by:

• Restoring pelvic balance

• Reducing nerve interference

• Easing lower back and hip pain

• Improving posture and spinal alignment

Common Pregnancy Conditions Chiropractic Can Help

Prenatal chiropractic care has been shown to support relief from the following conditions:

• Sciatica

• Pelvic pain or instability

• Round ligament pain

• Lower back and mid-back pain

• Headaches

• Poor sleep quality

According to the American Pregnancy Association, chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy are both safe and effective when performed by a trained provider.¹

The Webster Technique: A Gentle Approach

At Bach Chiropractic in Dunedin, we use the Webster Technique—a specialized, gentle chiropractic method designed to align the pelvis and reduce intrauterine constraint.² This technique may encourage optimal fetal positioning and reduce the risk of breech presentation.

Some studies suggest that regular use of the Webster Technique during pregnancy can improve comfort and reduce labor times.³

Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Care

• Helps maintain a healthier pregnancy

• Reduces likelihood of cesarean delivery

• Relieves joint, neck, and back pain

• Improves pelvic alignment for easier labor

• Enhances overall comfort and mobility
