Chiropractic Helps You Stay Active During Your Pregnancy
Many pregnant women suffer from low back pain, sciatica, neck tension, pelvic pain and even carpal tunnel. The good news is that prenatal chiropractic care is effective—and safe—before, during, and after pregnancy.
Dr. Goldi herself experienced the benefits of chiropractic during her pregnancy. With adjustments throughout her two pregnancies, she got significant relief from low back pain and other aches. This helped her stay active and enjoy the work she loves.
Prenatal chiropractic care can help keep you comfortable and healthy, too.
Chiropractors can support expectant mothers throughout their pregnancy.
Low back pain and discomfort are common during pregnancy. Chiropractic techniques designed for pregnancy can help ease aches and pains, promote a healthy pregnancy, and support an uneventful labor and delivery.
Prenatal chiropractors understands the unique needs of expectant mothers.

We often choose lighter force adjustments using an activator to help a woman as her body is changing throughout her pregnancy. We also use RockTape taping techniques.
Here's how our patient, Polly Feyerstein described her experience with chirorpactic during pregnancy:
"I’ve been in to see Goldi during both of my pregnancies which has helped me to stay active through each!
Today was even better because my 2 year old was acting her age and even with her sitting on the bed Goldi was still able to adjust me.
I recommend her to all my friends especially the pregnant ones."
Mary P. had this to say about the results of chiropractic during pregnancy:
"I especially took to her adjustments when I was pregnant and saw her once a week during my later months.
The alleviation of my pregnancy back pains meant the world to me and I will always be grateful for that comfort she provided! And now my 3 yr old son loves going with me to the chiropractor and he gets adjustments too!"
Whether you want to keep working, stay active, or just need some relief from your pregnancy-related aches and pains, chiropractic can help.
