Pregnancy Chiropractic in Chippewa Falls

Growing a baby is a special season, but it can also bring new aches, stiffness, and pressure in your back, hips, and pelvis. As your body changes week by week, it works hard to keep up with the demands of pregnancy for both you and your baby. Chippewa Falls Chiropractor Dr. Jason Denn believes this is one of the most important times to keep your spine and pelvis balanced. At Denn Chiropractic, the goal is to help your body adapt comfortably so you can move, sleep, and function as well as possible throughout pregnancy.

Why See a Chiropractor During Pregnancy?

During pregnancy, your posture and center of gravity shift, and hormones like relaxin loosen the ligaments around your pelvis. This extra looseness can make it easier for the lower back and hips to slip out of good alignment, especially as your baby grows.

Chiropractic focuses on keeping those joints moving well so your body can maintain healthy biomechanics and give your baby more room to find a good position. Dr. Denn provides gentle, specific adjustments that reduce stress on your lower back, hips, and pelvis while encouraging your body’s natural ability to adapt.

Gentle, Specific Adjusting for Prenatal Comfort

Most expecting mothers are adjusted much the same as non-pregnant adults, with modifications based on how far along you are and how you are feeling. If there are concerns, such as placenta previa or you prefer a lighter touch, Dr. Denn may use instrument-adjusting instead of traditional table drops. This small handheld device delivers a light, targeted tap to a joint, allowing it to move without twisting.

The office also uses pregnancy-adjusting tables so you can lie comfortably face down, with sections that lower or open to relieve pressure on your abdomen.

How Prenatal Chiropractic Can Improve Comfort and Mobility

Prenatal chiropractic care can help with:

  • Hip and lower back discomfort
  • Pelvic tightness or stress
  • Anterior belly or rib discomfort from the baby’s positioning
  • Posture changes from carrying extra weight
  • General stiffness later in pregnancy

Visit frequency is tailored to your needs, though many women come more often in the third trimester.
