Prenatal + Postpartum

You Don’t Have to Navigate Physical Changes Alone.  Woodbury Family Chiropractic’s Specialized Team Offers Loving, Natural Care Tailored to You and Baby.

Restoring Balance and Comfort Through Every Stage of Motherhood

Maintaining proper pelvic symmetry during pregnancy not only eases lower back and nerve tension, but it also creates maximum room for baby to move into an optimal position for birth. After baby arrives, gentle postpartum adjustments help realign your pelvis, relieve upper back strain from nursing, and support core and pelvic floor recovery

Common Discomforts We Help Relieve

SI Joint & Hip Pressure

Shifting weight distribution and loosening ligaments can create sharp aches in the hips, buttocks, and lower back, making standing or walking uncomfortable.

Lower Back & Nerve Strain

As baby grows and postural curves change, increased pressure on the lower spine can lead to localized back tightness or radiant nerve discomfort down the leg.

Pelvic Alignment Strain

Uneven pelvic alignment can cause pinpoint soreness along the pubic bone (SPD), especially when turning in bed or stepping out of the car.

Prenatal Stress & Restlessness

Hormonal fluctuations and physical discomfort can leave your nervous system in a constant state of tension. 

 

HOW WE HELP

How Chiropractic Care Supports Pregnancy + Postpartum Healing

During pregnancy and the postpartum period, your body undergoes rapid structural, hormonal, and physical shifts. Our certified chiropractors specialize in gentle, low-force techniques—including the Webster Technique—that restore optimal alignment to your pelvis and spine, easing stress on both mother and child.

With specialized table adjustments tailored for growing bellies and gentle, non-invasive techniques, our care relieves deep joint pressure, eases nerve strain, and supports your body’s natural ability to adapt throughout pregnancy and recover smoothly after birth.

Low Back Decompression

Low-force techniques take direct pressure off the lower back, hips, and sciatic nerve, helping you move, walk, and sit without sharp discomfort.

Nervous System Relaxation

Easing spinal tension helps regulate your nervous system, reducing physical stress, easing pregnancy anxiety, and promoting deeper, more restorative sleep.

Webster Technique Experts

Gentle, certified adjustments restore symmetry to pelvic bones and ligaments, relieving intrauterine constraint and creating comfortable space for baby.

Postpartum Recovery & Stability

Targeted care helps stabilize your pelvis after delivery, relieves nursing posture strain in the upper back, and supports long-term core recovery.

Most Common Prenatal + Postpartum Care Questions

Navigating physical changes during or after pregnancy? Here are answers to the most common questions mothers ask before their first appointment.

Is chiropractic care safe during all trimesters of pregnancy?
Yes! Chiropractic care is extremely safe throughout every stage of pregnancy. Our certified doctors use gentle, low-force techniques and pregnancy-adapted equipment to ensure complete safety and comfort for both you and your baby.
What is the Webster Technique and how does it help?
The Webster Technique is a specialized chiropractic analysis and adjustment that restores balance to pelvic bones and surrounding ligaments. Easing intrauterine tension creates optimal space for baby to move naturally as birth approaches.
How soon after giving birth can I receive chiropractic care?
You can receive gentle care as soon as you feel comfortable traveling to our office, often within the first few weeks after birth. Care is adapted to gently support your pelvic healing, relieve nursing posture strain, and aid recovery.
Will I receive an adjustment during my first visit?
Yes! After a thorough consultation and gentle postural assessment tailored to your stage of pregnancy or postpartum recovery, you will receive personalized care during your initial visit to start relieving discomfort right away.
Can I combine chiropractic with prenatal acupuncture or massage?
Absolutely. While chiropractic realigns the spine and pelvis, our pregnancy-safe acupuncture and massage therapies focus on releasing tight hip muscles, easing swelling, and calming the nervous system for holistic support.
Do you accept insurance or health savings accounts?
Yes! We verify insurance benefits directly to maximize your coverage for chiropractic services. We also accept HSA and FSA cards, as well as flexible self-pay plans for our integrative care options.
