Prenatal Chiropractor in Pennsville, NJ: Dr. Scott Walker, DC
Salem County Chiropractic Center • Most Insurance Accepted

During pregnancy, the body goes through amazing changes. With the spine, pelvis and other parts of the body moving around during every stage of a pregnancy, misalignments can occur, causing disorders that can affect the nerves, muscles or organs.

With the body changing drastically, the spinal column itself moves to accommodate a child and the extra weight. The pelvis undergoes many changes to compensate for the growing baby as well. Risk of misalignments and interference of the nervous system can increase as pregnancy continues. The pelvis supports the growing uterus with specific ligaments. If the bones of the pelvis are out of alignment, this will cause asymmetrical ligament support of the uterus. This results in a more difficult passage for the baby during delivery.

Chiropractic care promotes a more comfortable pregnancy:

These structural changes can affect the nerves and the spinal cord, disrupting the normal communication of information between the brain and the body. Dr. Scott Walker can adjust the spine and extremities to help the body feel relaxed and reduce pain or soreness. There are many benefits to chiropractic care during pregnancy which may include:

• Decreases lower back pain
• Reduces or eliminates headaches
• Reduces nerve pain
• Decreases joint pain

Enjoy pregnancy with medication-free chiropractic treatments:

Those who are pregnant come to chiropractors with problems such as heartburn, morning sickness, low back pain, breech babies, sciatica, swollen ankles and feet, headaches, and constipation. During a pregnancy, Dr. Walker will help to formulate a specific solution to target the problem areas at every stage. Having regular chiropractic care during a pregnancy can reveal important information regarding a person’s overall heath and provide a base for an effective course of action during each stage of a pregnancy.

Chiropractic care has been shown to decrease labor time, reduce the need for pain medications and may even reduce the incidence of post-partum.
