Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy Discomfort in Flower Mound

Pregnancy and Musculoskeletal Pain

Pregnancy is a unique time of rapid physical change.
As the uterus expands and hormones relax ligaments, many women experience low back pain, pelvic discomfort and joint instability.
It’s estimated that approximately half of pregnant women experience back pain during pregnancy.
In a narrative review of the literature, researchers concluded that chiropractic evaluation and treatment during pregnancy may be considered a safe and effective means of treating common musculoskeletal symptoms.
However, only about 21 % of pregnant women with back pain consult their medical physicians.

Our Approach to Prenatal Chiropractic Care

At New Life Chiropractic, our chiropractors use gentle, low‑force techniques specifically adapted for pregnant women.
We evaluate posture, pelvic alignment and muscle tension to determine appropriate care.
Our goal is to reduce discomfort and improve mobility while supporting the normal changes of pregnancy.
We collaborate with obstetric providers and defer advanced or medical discussions to appropriate professionals, focusing solely on musculoskeletal care.

What Prenatal Chiropractic May Offer

Relief from joint and back pain: Pregnancy shifts the center of gravity forward, increasing lumbar lordosis and strain on the low back. Chiropractic adjustments and exercises may help alleviate this stress and improve comfort.
Pelvic balance: Adjusting pelvic joints can support comfortable movement and may assist in maintaining balance as ligaments relax.
Posture education: We teach expecting mothers how to move safely, lift properly and use pillows to support the pelvis while sleeping.

Safety Considerations

We avoid high‑force spinal manipulations and take extra care to support the abdomen.
Our chiropractors are trained to work with pregnant patients and will consult your healthcare provider if there are any contraindications.
Though some studies suggest chiropractic care may be associated with shorter labor times, we avoid making outcome promises and focus on present comfort and mobility.
