Take advantage of the full range of benefits introduced through chiropractic care and designed clinical nutrition during pregnancy:
Creates and Optimal Prenatal Environment:
Expert chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy relieves stress on your nervous system, and promotes proper nervous system function. Proper electrical signals from the brain to the uterus and fetus will help create a favorable environment for your baby’s growth and development. Proper nutrition will help promote optimal conditions for you and your baby during important stages in pregnancy. Adding concentrated whole food supplements will fill in for nutrients that your body is not currently receiving and or assimilating.
Less Pain:
Proper alignment of your spine and pelvis helps alleviate pressure on your nerves and keeps you more comfortable during pregnancy, labor and delivery. Dr. Chan offers at home adjustments during the labor process to improve body function and minimize pain.
Increased Confidence: Knowing that your body has been properly adjusted by Dr. Chan during pregnancy and that you are well-prepared for labor empowers you and gives you more confidence in your body’s ability to birth and heal. Throughout your care Dr. Chan will educate you about your body and its needs during pregnancy, and delivery. More information will help you feel more prepared for the beautiful journey of child birth.
Stronger Bonding:
Being in touch with the impact your central nervous system has on your pregnancy and activates your brain-body connection and helps you begin forming strong lifelong bonds with your unborn baby.
Faster, Easier Labor with Fewer Interventions:
When Dr. Chan utilizes the Webster technique to assess and align your pelvic: sacrum and illium (SI joints) and pubic bone, she adjusts the subluxation, reducing the tension in the surrounding ligaments and muscles. This alignment restores your body’s neuro-biomechanical connection, giving your baby more room and making it easier for them to get into an ideal birthing position. Chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy and labor also increase your chances of having a natural, uncomplicated birth by providing your baby with fewer obstacles during delivery and giving you better pelvic floor muscle control.
