Prenatal Lower Back Pain

How Our Chiropractor Can Help with Prenatal Lower Back Pain

When you’re struggling with back pain, it can negatively impact every aspect of your life. Many people find relief by working with a chiropractor. If you’re looking for a chiropractor near you in the Jupiter, FL, area, our team at La Ruffa Chiropractic & Sports Rehab has been working with clients in your area since 2006.

Many of our clients come to us with lower back pain. One frequent cause of lower back pain is pregnancy, since the weight of the growing baby will place pressure on the bones of the spinal cord. According to Healthline, chiropractic care for prenatal lower back pain is safe and effective. Not only can chiropractic care reduce the pain in your back, and hips, but it will also improve your pelvic balance, which can result in faster and less complicated labor and delivery.

Chiropractic Care for Pregnant Clients

As with all our clients, a visit from a pregnant client will begin with a complete examination. During the exam, our chiropractor will be able to locate the origin of your back pain. If any of your spinal bones are out of alignment, our chiropractor will perform a chiropractic adjustment. These treatments occur when our chiropractor places their hands on your back and press inward and forward, so the underlying soft tissue will propel the spinal bone back into its proper alignment.

In addition to causing the misalignment of spinal bones, the weight gained during pregnancy can cause the spinal discs to protrude from between the vertebrae. When this occurs, a client’s back pain will be accompanied by restriction of her range of motion. To correct this condition, our team may recommend spinal decompression. Clients who undergo spinal decompression will lie on a specialized table, which will assist them in flexing their bodies into positions that allow the spinal bones and discs to return to their correct positions.
