Prenatal / Perinatal Care

Welcome to your dedicated Webster Certified prenatal chiropractor. Whether you are trying to get pregnant or you are in your first or last trimester, chiropractic care can benefit you! As both a mother and a seasoned chiropractor, Dr. Shanna understands the journey we experience with pregnancy. She’s here to provide specialized chiropractic care to enhance your well-being during this exciting time.

While pregnant, a woman’s body undergoes substantial stress and strain that can lead to spinal misalignment. Misalignment of the pelvis, in particular, may cause discomfort and pain for mom but it also causes pressure, restraint, and torsion on the uterus. Not only will your baby have less room to move around, this may also cause decreased flow of nutrients through blood vessels and nerves, all of which affect proper development.

At Rise Up Chiropractic, you can expect to be treated with care and respect. Dr. Shanna is trained using the Webster Technique, which will help create balance in your pelvis and nervous system, so your body can more easily adapt to the changes and stress of pregnancy. She also uses very safe and effective adjusting techniques that improve how your body moves and functions in order to provide a healthier environment for your growing baby.

There’s no reason to wait until you are pregnant before you come in. Chiropractic care works to remove nerve interference, so that your body is functioning optimally, which will improve hormone regulation and fertility.
