Frequently Asked Questions

Is Prenatal Chiropractic Care Safe During Pregnancy?

Yes. Prenatal chiropractic care is safe, gentle, and specifically adapted for pregnancy. Our techniques, positioning, and equipment are designed to support the changing pregnant body without pressure on the abdomen. Care is always tailored to your stage of pregnancy and personal comfort.

What Does a Prenatal Chiropractic Adjustment Look Like?

Prenatal adjustments are very gentle and use pregnancy-safe positioning, such as side-lying or specialized pillows designed for comfort. There is no forceful twisting or pressure on the belly. Most pregnant patients describe adjustments as relaxing and relieving.

What Conditions Can Prenatal Chiropractic Help With?

Many pregnant patients seek chiropractic care for back pain, pelvic discomfort, sciatica, hip pain, posture changes, and general tension. Prenatal chiropractic also supports nervous system function and mobility as the body adapts to pregnancy, helping improve overall comfort and movement.

How Can Chiropractic Care Support a Healthy Pregnancy?

Your nervous system plays a key role in how your body adapts to pregnancy. Prenatal chiropractic care focuses on reducing stress and tension in the nervous system, which can help the body adapt more efficiently to physical and hormonal changes throughout pregnancy.

Are INSiGHT Scans Safe During Pregnancy?

Yes. INSiGHT Scans are completely safe during pregnancy. They are non-invasive, involve no radiation, and do not apply force to the body. These scans gently assess how your nervous system is responding to stress so we can personalize care and track progress over time.

Why Is the Nervous System Important During Pregnancy?

The nervous system controls how your body adapts to pregnancy, including movement, posture, digestion, sleep, and stress response. Pregnancy places new demands on the nervous system, and when it becomes overwhelmed, discomfort and tension can increase. Supporting nervous system function helps promote better adaptation and balance during pregnancy.

How Often Should I See a Chiropractor While Pregnant?

Care frequency varies based on your stage of pregnancy, symptoms, and how your body is adapting. We make personalized recommendations based on your exam findings and INSiGHT Scan results, and we always explain our reasoning so you can make informed decisions without pressure.

Do You Work With Midwives, OBs, and Birth Teams?

Yes. We believe in collaborative care and regularly work alongside OBs, midwives, doulas, and other prenatal providers. Chiropractic care is meant to complement your prenatal medical care—not replace it.
