Prenatal chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic support through pregnancy
As the body changes during pregnancy — shifting posture, loosening ligaments, growing belly — the spine and pelvis take on new demands. Many pregnant women experience lower back discomfort, pelvic tension, hip pain, and changes in how they move and sleep.
Dr. Lauren Stethem offers chiropractic care specifically adapted for pregnancy. Positioning is modified for comfort and safety at every trimester, and techniques are chosen based on your stage of pregnancy and individual presentation.
Prenatal chiropractic assessment and care may support improved spinal and pelvic function, reduced discomfort, and better mobility during pregnancy. Care is provided within the scope of chiropractic practice and does not replace obstetric care.
