Pregnancy Chiropractic at Summit Chiropractic and Wellness
Awaiting the arrival of a new baby is one of the most special times in a woman’s life. Ensuring her body is as healthy as possible is extremely important. Not just for her, but also for the baby!
A woman’s body undergoes enormous changes during pregnancy. The strain on their joints and muscles, balance issues, and pressure from an enlarged abdomen are substantial. Mothers may develop poor posture, and often experience back pain due to increased ligament laxity, and changes in their center of gravity.

Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic
Making adjustments to the pelvis may relieve some of the discomfort that accompanies pregnancy. Better pelvis and spine movement also makes the labor and delivery process shorter and less painful. Dr. Simpson provides a natural approach that helps mothers obtain pain relief, prepare for birth, and function at their best during the postpartum period.
Webster Technique
Dr. Simpson is certified in the safe, gentle, and highly effective Webster Technique, designed especially to care for pregnant women. During his training, he learned many ways to keep women comfortable during gentle drop table adjustments.
He also has various sizes of pregnancy pillows to allow a mom to comfortably lie face-down without putting any pressure on her stomach during these gentle adjustments.
Giving Moms the Power
Dr. Simpson talks with his expectant mothers about their power. We want their nervous system to be at optimum levels to fire both the voluntary and involuntary muscles they need to prepare for the baby’s arrival and during labor. Our job is to have all the muscles working the best they possibly can, and restore the nerve flow down in the SI joint and sacrum region.
We help balance the pelvis, so there’s optimal space when giving birth. We also balance the ligaments directly attached to the pelvis, so the baby can be in the most optimal position possible during labor and birth.
