Chiropractor During Pregnancy - Have You Seen One?

[Ryatha]

I started seeing a chiro at 30 weeks with Fred cause I put my pelvis out. It helped soooo much and every time I saw him fred engaged head down and then I went into labour after seeing him at 38.5 weeks. It really really helped with the pain.

Def make an appointment

I used to go to a chiro monthly years ago for general lower back pain, and then stopped for one reason or another.

Within the first 12 weeks or so of this pregnancy, I was getting the worst sciatica pain down my right leg and into my foot it was awful. At around 20 weeks I was recommended a chiro who specialised in pregnancy, bit the bullet and went in. Best thing I could have done. She said it made it more difficult to pin point by not having xrays, but did a range of tests (movements I had to do etc) scored me and we started with twice weekly and now weekly adjustments. The relief was amazingly quick, and I also think it has helped me cope alot better in general - sleep and stress wise too. She said we could go fortnightly or longer now but as we are so close to 'showtime' I want to continue to go weekly so I'm in optimum shape for birth!

Good luck if you choose to try that path....the trick will be finding a reputable chiro - hope it works out for you
