For you, having the healthiest pregnancy possible is your #1 priority
You not only want to thrive during this very pivotal time in your life, but you want to ensure that your little one is getting everything they need from your body.
The other thing on your mind? Birth. Your intention is to avoid medical interventions and deliver your baby naturally.
So, in this moment, you’d really love support with both. To essentially work with one practitioner who can:
-
Relieve your lower back pain, hip pain, and pelvic pain
-
Address imbalances that may affect the position of the baby for birth
-
Identify any nutrient deficiencies that are important to remedy
-
And more
Because as someone who is juggling a lot - a household, a job, perhaps another child, and a full life - knowing one practitioner has your back (literally) and knows how to set you up for success, would really make life easier.
Well, you're in the right place.
First, I’m here to tell you that it is absolutely possible to experience relief from these symptoms during pregnancy.
Study after study have shown that chiropractic adjustments are more effective, safer, and lower cost than other options such as medication, physical therapy, and surgery.
Yes, it IS possible and safe to get adjusted during pregnancy (I have a special table and pillows to allow space for your growing baby) especially by a specialist who is Webster certified, and also performs myofascial work, like me!
Second, I’ve found that functional medicine helps tremendously with fatigue and pain. Individualized dietary and supplement recommendations based off thorough blood work is so helpful in supporting your body as it performs the amazing (and energetically demanding!) task of creating, sustaining, birthing, and nourishing a baby.
That’s why I’ve combined all of these methods together into one holistic package:
Here's how it works.
A personalized form of complementary care designed to address physical pain and nutrient deficiencies supports natural birth and ensures the healthiest outcomes for you and your baby.
Pain, fatigue, and baby malpositioning are all indicative of structural and/or energetic imbalance in the body which can affect the birth process by hindering the passage through the birth canal or interfering with nerve/blood supply to the uterus.
These issues can lengthen labor, increase medical intervention, and place more stress on the baby’s delicate spine. Restoring balance to the body helps women live to their fullest potential during pregnancy and feel empowered by their birth.
A non-traumatic birth and continued health support postpartum build the foundation for conscious parenting and unleash the progress of future generations.
