Pregnancy Chiropractic

Chiropractic care helps your body be as strong, supple, and balanced as possible before you even begin carrying a pregnancy, giving you a solid foundation right from the start.

Regular chiropractic care throughout pregnancy can help ease back pain, nausea, and other common discomforts, naturally, without the need for drugs.

Developed by the late Larry Webster, D.C., this technique helps release stress on the pelvis, relaxing the surrounding ligaments and reducing sacral subluxation to help restore more normal function. It’s designed to help your baby settle into the best possible position for birth. Both Dr. Gordon and Dr. Lesley are trained in the Webster Technique, so you’re in good hands with either doctor.

Being under chiropractic care throughout your pregnancy can help reduce labour time and decrease the need for interventions during the birth process.

Even a natural birth can place real stress on a baby’s spine, which is why we recommend having your baby checked as soon after delivery as possible. Adjustments for newborns are incredibly gentle, using about the same amount of pressure you’d use to check a tomato for ripeness.
