Pregnancy & Post Natal Chiropractic Care

Overview of Chiropractic Care During and After Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time of rapid physical change, and your spine, pelvis, and nervous system all work harder to support both you and your baby. At Advantage Chiropractic, we offer safe and gentle chiropractic care designed to relieve discomfort, support pelvic alignment, and promote overall wellbeing during pregnancy and beyond.

​

Postnatal care is just as important. After birth, your body goes through a new phase of healing, adjusting to posture changes, feeding positions, and daily demands. Chiropractic care helps ease tension, support recovery, and improve mobility through this transition.

Why Chiropractic Is Helpful During Pregnancy

As your body adapts to pregnancy, ligaments loosen, posture shifts, and extra weight places more stress on the spine and pelvis. These changes can lead to:

  • Lower back pain

  • Hip or pelvic discomfort

  • Sciatica or nerve tension

  • Neck and shoulder tightness

  • Postural fatigue

  • Trouble sleeping or staying comfortable

Chiropractic care supports balance in the pelvis and spine, which may improve comfort and movement throughout each trimester.

Chiropractic Techniques Used in Pregnancy

Pregnancy care is always gentle and tailored to you. Our chiropractors use techniques that are specifically modified for pregnancy and your stage of development. These may include:

  • Low-force pelvic and spinal adjustments

  • Soft tissue work to ease tight muscles

  • Breathing and mobility guidance

  • Postural support for sleep and daily movement

  • Use of pregnancy pillows and bolsters for comfort

We create a calm and supportive space where you feel heard and respected at every stage.

Supporting Pelvic Balance and Baby Position

Maintaining good pelvic alignment during pregnancy is key to reducing discomfort and promoting optimal baby positioning. Chiropractic care may help reduce restrictions in the pelvis, improve symmetry, and support space in the uterus for baby to settle in the right position.

Many patients also report better movement, reduced pressure, and more confidence in their body's ability to prepare for birth.

Post Natal Chiropractic Care

After your baby arrives, your spine and muscles adjust again. Feeding positions, carrying, and interrupted sleep can all place stress on the back, neck, and pelvis.

Postnatal chiropractic care can help:

  • Ease back, neck, and pelvic tension

  • Support core and spinal stability

  • Improve mobility and posture

  • Promote recovery after birth

  • Reduce strain from feeding, lifting, and holding

We tailor care to your pace and needs, whether you're six weeks post-birth or several months into parenting.

Chiropractic and Common Postpartum Symptoms

Many new parents come to us with:

  • Mid-back and shoulder tension

  • Pelvic pain or instability

  • Sciatica or nerve-related discomfort

  • Headaches from poor sleep or posture

  • A general feeling of being “out of alignment”

Chiropractic care offers a natural, drug-free option to support your recovery and overall energy levels.

Can I Receive Chiropractic While Breastfeeding or Healing?

Yes. Our chiropractors adapt care to meet you where you're at. We consider birth history, breastfeeding positions, and any physical trauma experienced during labour. If your care is related to an injury, we can lodge your ACC claim in-clinic and support your recovery through a personalised plan.
