Chiropractic care is vital for the normal physiological function for both the baby and the mother during pregnancy and birth. If a subluxation is present during pregnancy, it will interrupt vital nerve flow within a mother’s body and to the developing baby. Chiropractic care during pregnancy is designed to eliminate subluxations, open nerve pathways, and decrease stress on the mother and baby.
