Pregnancy

Women often struggle with lower back, hip, pelvis and even foot pain during pregnancy. Pain may even be the result of heavier breasts or difficult sitting positions. Sometimes, pain is the result of other conditions like accidents or injuries. Many women experience hip bursitis from lying on their side while sleeping. It can be related to softening ligaments, weight gain, a change in posture or any of the adaptive body distortions that occur during pregnancy.

Chiropractic care is safe during pregnancy. Whether the condition is related to the pregnancy or the result of another life event.

At The Bend, we will do a thorough examination to determine the cause of pain and apply the right technique for correction based on your pain level and stage of pregnancy.
