Safe, Effective Relief for Pregnancy-Related Pain
Pregnancy is a transformative and beautiful journey, but it can also bring unique physical challenges.
Many women experience low back pain, pelvic discomfort, and other musculoskeletal symptoms during pregnancy, often with limited options for relief. At Spine Pain & Performance Center in Geneva, IL, we specialize in providing safe, gentle chiropractic care to help you feel your best throughout your pregnancy.
Find Comfort and Support During Your Pregnancy
As your body changes to support your growing baby, increased stress is placed on your spine, joints, and muscles. This can lead to:
- Low back Pain
- Pelvic Discomfort
- Sciatic Nerve Discomfort
- Neck and Shoulder Tension
- Difficulty Sleeping
Chiropractic care during pregnancy is a safe, non-invasive solution to relieve these common issues, helping you maintain mobility, reduce pain, and prepare your body for labor and delivery.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe During Pregnancy?
Yes! Chiropractic care during pregnancy has been shown to be both safe and effective for relieving pain and improving mobility. Our chiropractors, Dr. David Ginsberg and Dr. Josh Bletzinger, are experienced in working with expecting mothers and use techniques that are carefully adapted to suit each stage of pregnancy.
Research supports the benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy:
- A systematic review found significant improvements in low back pain for pregnant women receiving chiropractic care (Borggren, 2007).
- Studies show that 94% of women experience clinically significant relief from pregnancy-related back pain after chiropractic treatment.
- Most women achieve relief in just a few visits, with pain levels dropping from a 5.9 to a 1.5 on a 10-point scale.
How SPPC Supports Expecting Mothers
At Spine Pain & Performance Center, we provide specialized care for pregnant women using safe, gentle techniques designed to align your body and relieve discomfort.
1. Prenatal Adjustments
Using the Gonstead Method, Webster Technique, and other gentle techniques, we perform precise adjustments to restore alignment, reduce nerve pressure, and support pelvic balance. These adjustments help:
- Reduce back pain and sciatica
- Improve mobility and posture
- Optimize alignment for labor and delivery
2. Pelvic Support and Balance
Pelvic misalignments during pregnancy can contribute to pain and even complicate labor. Our adjustments help maintain proper pelvic alignment, which can improve your baby’s positioning and reduce tension on the uterus.
3. Soft Tissue Therapies
We complement chiropractic care with techniques like trigger point therapy to relieve tension in muscles and fascia, further reducing discomfort and enhancing mobility.
4. Postural and Lifestyle Guidance
We’ll provide personalized advice on posture, stretches, and movements to support your body’s changing needs and help you stay active and comfortable throughout your pregnancy.
The Benefits of Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy
Expecting mothers who receive chiropractic care often report:
- Reduced Pain: Relief from low back pain, pelvic discomfort, and joint stiffness.
- Improved Mobility: Greater ease in movement and better posture.
- Better Sleep: Alleviation of tension that interferes with rest.
- Enhanced Labor and Delivery: Proper spinal and pelvic alignment can contribute to shorter, less painful labor.
