How 1-Spine Chiropractic Helps Pregnant Women Stay Healthy | Chiropractor in Lubbock, TX
Hello, I’m Dr. Greg Marin from 1-Spine Chiropractic. Today, we’ll delve into how our practice provides comprehensive care for prenatal patients, addressing common discomforts and ensuring a healthy, comfortable pregnancy.
Understanding Prenatal Concerns and Goals
Many expectant mothers visit our clinic seeking relief from issues like back pain, hip discomfort, and sciatica. Additionally, we assist proactive individuals aiming for a smooth, trouble-free delivery by ensuring proper pelvic alignment and functionality. Our initial consultation aims to assess your health history, identify any underlying injuries, and understand your pregnancy goals—whether it’s pain relief or ensuring a smooth delivery process.
Thorough Examination and Diagnostic Tools
Following the consultation, we conduct a comprehensive examination, encompassing chiropractic, orthopedic, and neurological assessments. While x-rays are not utilized for pregnant patients, we evaluate posture to discern spinal conditions contributing to discomfort. Utilizing subluxation scans, we objectively assess nervous system function, inflammation levels, and muscle tension, laying the groundwork for tailored treatment plans.
Trial Adjustment and Treatment Plan
A trial adjustment allows us to gauge your body’s response and tailor treatment accordingly. This adjustment aims to alleviate discomfort and improve overall comfort during pregnancy. Subsequently, we devise a comprehensive treatment plan, addressing specific needs and goals while considering insurance coverage and financial aspects.
Chiropractic Techniques for Pregnancy Wellness
Our practice employs chiropractic adjustments to address subluxations, ensuring proper spinal alignment and relieving associated discomforts like hip pain and sciatica. We also utilize the Webster technique, focusing on pelvic adjustment and addressing muscle and ligament tension to facilitate optimal fetal positioning. Dr. Haddock’s expertise in acupuncture offers additional pain relief options for expectant mothers.
Empowering Patients with Home Care and Nutritional Guidance
In addition to in-office treatments, we equip patients with stretches, exercises, and nutritional guidance to enhance comfort and support overall wellness. Nutritional consultations provide insights into dietary adjustments and supplement recommendations to promote maternal and fetal health.
