Postpartum Chiropractic Care and Designed Clinical Nutrition
The Benefits
Postpartum chiropractic care and a specifically designed nutrition program, is an essential service that provides parents of newborns with a variety of key benefits:
Faster Healing:
Ensuring your spine and pelvis are in alignment after childbirth reduces the tension on your ligaments and promotes faster postpartum healing. If you didn’t receive prenatal chiropractic care and have untreated postpartum prolapse or diastasis, Dr. Chan has the expertise to encourage restorative healing of these conditions. Implementing real food nutrition and food based supplementation will help your body repair itself and become healthier.
Ongoing Wellness:
Dr. Chan always visits with her new moms and babies within the first week postpartum to provide lactation support, eliminate tension in the baby’s nervous system, and promote your healing process by ensuring your body is in alignment. If Dr. Chan is present during your home or hospital delivery, she will examine you and your new baby and adjust misalignments or nerve interferences in your nervous systems right away, putting both of you on the path to your best recovery. Adding concentrated whole food supplements will fill in for nutrients that your body is not currently receiving and or assimilating.
Reduced Stress:
Keeping your neuromuscular system aligned through postpartum chiropractic care makes your body better able to adapt to physical and emotional stress caused by lack of sleep and the strain of carrying your newborn.
Smoother Family Transition:
The first 40 days after birth, or “The Golden Month,” is a pivotal time for your family as your life together begins to take form. Dr. Chan holistic approach to chiropractic wellness takes into account the changing dynamics of your family’s life and offers you a connection to helpful resources. She provides postpartum office and home visits so you can remain at home with your newborn as she cares for your family as a whole and monitors your newborn’s developmental milestones. Implementing tailored nutrition will help to rebuild the body after birth, to provide strength and wellness for caring for your newborn.
