Pregnancy & Pediatric Chiropractic

We always celebrate pregnancies and births in the Excelsior community, and our team strives to help make every pregnancy a joyful experience. Our pregnancy and pediatrics services aim to keep mothers-to-be comfortable during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as ensure that every child has the benefit of a healthy developing body.

How Does it Help?

Pregnancy massage focuses on not only treating common areas of discomfort throughout your pregnancy but uses specialized pillows to ensure that all expecting mothers are completely comfortable and relaxed. Massage during pregnancy has the dual benefit of relieving pregnancy-related aches and pains, as well as reduce labor time, enhance the physiological and emotional well-being of both the mother and baby, and decrease stress and anxiety.

Evidence now shows that stress during the birth process can affect an infant’s developing spine and nervous system. Many spinal problems in adulthood are linked to points of stress during the birth process that affects an infant’s developing spine and nervous system. The small misalignments can lead to conditions like colic, torticollis, nursing difficulties, and poor sleep. Even allergic reactions, breathing problems, and chronic infections, such as ear infections, have been linked to nervous system stress. For children and toddlers, chiropractic care can help manage the small and large traumas that come with learning to walk, play, and sports. As the spine and joint experts, our team also screens for conditions that typically develop during early growth, such as scoliosis, Osgood Schlatter’s, and hip dysplasia.
