Pregnancy and after
Pregnancy and prenatal chiropractic care
Carrying a baby changes how your whole body loads. Our prenatal care uses Webster and perinatal certified technique, with positioning and pressure adapted to the trimester you are in.
Through pregnancy
What changes, trimester by trimester
First trimester
Early postural change and fatigue. Care is gentle and focused on comfort, with positioning adapted from the first visit.
Second trimester
As the bump grows, the lower back and pelvis take more load. This is when most people notice pain and when regular care helps most.
Third trimester
Pelvic balance, rib and hip discomfort, and preparing for birth. Webster technique is used specifically for pelvic alignment.
After birth, postpartum recovery
Postpartum recovery, plus the new strain of feeding and carrying. Bring the baby, we treat infants too.

Questions
Prenatal questions
Is chiropractic safe during pregnancy?
Yes, when it is done by someone trained for it. Our prenatal care uses Webster and perinatal certified technique, with positioning and pressure adjusted for each trimester.
What is the Webster technique?
A specific chiropractic assessment and adjustment of the pelvis used during pregnancy. It focuses on balance and function in the pelvis rather than on the baby.
How early can I start?
You can start at any point in pregnancy. Many people come in the second trimester when back and pelvic pain first appears, but earlier is fine.
Can I bring my baby after birth?
Yes. We treat infants and children, and many parents book their own postnatal care and their baby in the same visit.
Will I see a female chiropractor?
Yes. Every chiropractor at Welo is female, so that is never something you have to ask for. Tell us how many weeks you are when you book and we will match you with the right one, and our prenatal care is Webster and perinatal certified.
