Prenatal Chiropractic Care
​Pregnancy is a time of incredible change and growth, and at Body Works Chiropractic and Wellness Center, we support you every step of the way. We are specially trained to provide safe and effective care for expecting mothers, helping to alleviate discomfort and promote a healthy pregnancy.​​ Our approach to prenatal chiropractic care is gentle and tailored to meet specific needs, ensuring comfort and peace of mind.
The Benefits for Expecting Mothers
Reduced Discomfort
Regular chiropractic care helps manage the physical changes of pregnancy, reducing discomfort and making the pregnancy experience more comfortable overall.
Improved Pelvic Alignment
Proper pelvic alignment can contribute to smoother labor and delivery. Regular care can help ensure the body is in optimal condition, potentially reducing labor time and the need for interventions.
Enhanced Nervous System Function
Chiropractic care supports optimal nervous system function, promoting overall health and well-being for both mother and baby.
Reduces Sciatica and Stress on the Feet
Extra pressure on the sciatic nerve during pregnancy can cause pain that radiates down the legs. Chiropractic adjustments relieve nerve compression, reducing sciatica symptoms.
Supports A Safe and Natural Birth
By promoting optimal pelvic alignment and reducing tension, chiropractic care can support a natural, non-invasive birth process, lowering the risk of complications.
Promotes Optimal Fetal Positioning
By ensuring the pelvis and spine are properly aligned, chiropractic care encourages optimal fetal positioning, which can lead to an easier, safer delivery.
Relieves Joint and Muscle Pain
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can loosen joints, leading to discomfort and instability. Chiropractic adjustments help maintain proper joint function, reducing pain and improving mobility.
Helps With Postpartum Recovery
Chiropractic care can aid in the recovery process after childbirth, helping to address any lingering discomfort and supporting the body's natural healing process.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
At Body Works Chiropractic and Wellness Center, we believe that a healthy start in life begins with a well-aligned spine. Pediatric chiropractic care is a gentle, non-invasive approach to addressing common childhood issues and promoting overall wellness. Our experienced chiropractors use specialized techniques to ensure the safety and comfort of your child during every visit.
The Benefits For Growing Youth
Alleviate Pain and Support Healthy Development
Chiropractic ensures proper spinal position, muscoskeletal structure, and a healthy nervous system - all which are crucial for growing bodies. We also can ease the discomfort known as growing pains by ensuring proper joint and muscle function.
Improves Posture and Corrects "Text Neck"
With increasing use of technology, poor posture is becoming extremely common in children. Chiropractic adjustments help correct posture issues early on, preventing long-term spinal problems.
Alleviates Colic and Digestive Issues
Gentle chiropractic adjustments can help relieve colic, constipation, and other digestive problems by improving nerve function and reducing tension in the spine, which influences digestive organs.
Enhances Immune Function
By maintaining a properly aligned spine, chiropractic care supports the nervous system, which boosts immune function, helping children fight off common illnesses more effectively.
Reduces Stress and Anxiety
Chiropractic care can help reduce physical stress in the body, which in turn can lower emotional stress and anxiety levels in children, contributing to a calmer and more balanced mood.
Improves Sleep Quality and Quantity
Misalignments in the spine can cause discomfort and restlessness in children. Chiropractic care helps reduce this discomfort, promoting better sleep patterns and overall restfulness.
Enhances Athletic Performance
For active children and young athletes, chiropractic care can improve flexibility, coordination, and injury prevention, helping them perform better in sports and physical activities.
Supports Cognitive Development
A well-functioning nervous system is essential for cognitive development. Chiropractic care helps maintain spinal alignment, supporting optimal brain and nervous system function, which is crucial for learning and behavior.
