PRENATAL CARE

You might wonder whether it’s safe to engage in chiropractic care during your pregnancy. The simple answer is, yes! In fact, you are at higher risk of injury during your drive to the grocery store than you are during treatment. Numerous studies confirm chiropractic is not just safe, but beneficial to pregnant women.

PROVIDING BENEFITS FOR MOM AND BABY

We like to joke with our expectant mothers that you’re receiving a “2-for-1 special,” when you receive chiropractic care during pregnancy. But it’s no joke that both you and your baby benefit greatly from the care you receive. Your nervous system controls every function of your body. During pregnancy, it’s working for your baby as well. All of the changes taking place in your body have to be coordinated with expert precision to ensure the healthy development of your child.

One of the most important times for a woman to receive chiropractic care is during pregnancy!

YOUR FIRST VISIT AS AN EXPECTANT MOTHER:

Are you looking for wellness care? Too many people these days are convinced that they are sick solely because they exhibit symptoms. However, in many cases, you can be sick without any symptoms at all. Thankfully, it is becoming the norm to seek out healthcare even when you are in full health. This is a smart approach for people wishing to live a long and healthy life. Chiropractic care at Modern Movement Medicine has demonstrated success on many levels in offering effective wellness care.

WELLNESS CARE

Most parents have had to pick up their children at school, or skip a day of work themselves due to symptoms that appear to be a sign of illness. Many studies have proven that these symptoms are the result of our day to day operations and lifestyles. These habits are capable of creating very serious diseases that can go undetected until there is a big “flare-up” without any notice.

YOUR BODY'S REACTION

Your body does not only feel the wrath of your bad habits, but is also affected by your good habits. Most people understand that if you eat an improperly cooked meal that there is a strong chance you will feel sick later. In most cases, people are able to distinguish between properly cooked and poorly cooked meals. Feeling great all the time is not only a side-effect of eating healthy and having good habits, it’s the cause.
