Pregnancy is a time of incredible change—physically, emotionally, and hormonally. Whether you're soaking in every moment, navigating discomfort, or somewhere in between, we're here to support you through it all.

At Vital Healing Chiropractic, we believe your journey to motherhood should be as comfortable and balanced as possible. Chiropractic care is a safe, natural way to support your body through each stage—whether you're preparing for pregnancy, just got pregnancy results, or are counting down the days until birth.

Your spine plays a key role in protecting your nervous system, which connects every part of your body—including your growing baby. With gentle, tailored adjustments, we help ease discomfort, improve alignment, and create space for both you and your little one to thrive. No matter your birth plan, regular chiropractic care can enhance your overall well-being, promote relaxation, and help you feel more connected to your changing body.

The sooner, the better—but it’s never too late to start. Let’s work together to keep you feeling your best through every trimester and beyond.

The best part? We get to work from the comfort of your home.

The goals of chiropractic care during pregnancy

✅ Alleviate Pregnancy Discomfort

Our gentle adjustments help relieve common pregnancy discomforts like back pain, hip pain, swelling, fatigue and sciatica by promoting better alignment and balance so you can enjoy your pregnancy.

✅ Support for Labor & Delivery

Proper alignment during pregnancy can help improve pelvic balance, potentially leading to a smoother labor and delivery experience.

✅ Postpartum Recovery

After birth, chiropractic care supports your body’s recovery process by addressing alignment changes, easing aches, and helping you feel your best as you care for your newborn.

Postpartum Care

Postpartum chiropractic care supports your body as it recovers and adjusts after birth. Pregnancy and labor bring significant changes to your spine, pelvis, and nervous system, and the demands of caring for a newborn—like feeding, carrying, and sleepless nights—can add even more stress. Gentle and specific chiropractic adjustments help restore alignment, ease tension, and improve nervous system function, promoting better healing and overall well-being.

Many postpartum moms and even dads experience back pain, pelvic discomfort, sciatica, or even wrist and shoulder strain from holding and nursing their baby. Chiropractic care can address these issues while also supporting core and pelvic stability, making daily movements feel easier. Additionally, realigning the spine helps regulate the nervous system, which may improve sleep, digestion, and emotional well-being during this transformative time.

Whether you had a vaginal birth, cesarean birth, medicated or unmedicated birth at the hospital, birth center or at home, chiropractic care is a natural and effective way to help your body feel more balanced, strong, and supported as you care for your little one.

The goals of chiropractic care during postpartum

✅ Improved Biomechanics and Healing

Pregnancy can throw off the body’s balance. Chiropractic care can help restore the body’s natural biomechanics, releasing pressure and realigning joints. This too promotes your body’s ability to heal itself.

✅ Pain Relief

Holding and lifting baby can cause neck and shoulder pain. Chiropractic adjustments can alleviate postpartum pain-related symptoms.

✅ Mood Support

The change in hormones after having a baby can cause mood disorders. Chiropractic care has been shown to improve these symptoms by lowering blood pressure, encouraging better sleep, and relieving tension.

Why choose Vital Healing Chiropractic for your Pregnancy and Postpartum Care?

Your pregnancy is a sacred time, and I deeply respect the incredible changes happening within you.

As a Webster-certified chiropractor trained through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), I specialize in perinatal care to support your body’s natural ability to adapt throughout pregnancy. The Webster Technique is a gentle, specific chiropractic approach that focuses on the sacrum, pelvis, and spine, incorporating adjustments, soft tissue releases, and corrective techniques. According to the ICPA, “the goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/SI joint dysfunction. In doing so, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is facilitated.”

Misalignments (subluxations) in the sacrum, pelvis, and spine can contribute to discomfort and even more challenging labor. Because the uterus, pelvic muscles, and your baby’s position are all influenced by the nervous system, chiropractic adjustments help restore optimal function—enhancing the connection between your brain, body, and growing baby.

Don’t forget the part where I come directly to you and provide care in the comfort of your home!
