We are continuing our monthly series called “Top Five OR Five Common Physical Medicine Facts.” Each month, we’ll give a top 5 list, ranging from reasons for injuries to conditions themselves to misconceptions about healthcare to ways to help small offices/businesses, and so on. All these problems range from common to uncommon in the State College and Centre County communities.
This month, Rothrock Chiropractic and Rehabilitation presents Top five chiropractic management tools for pregnancy.
Pregnancy is an exciting time for a family. Soon, mom, dad, and the whole family will be welcoming a new life into the world! But, this is also a time where women may feel a loss of autonomy over their own bodies. They may grow fearful of a difficult labor or low back pain associated with being pregnant.
That’s why we utilize Webster technique to manage low back pain. These techniques may also lower the chances of having a difficult labor. Here are the top five areas we treat to support pregnancy:
- Pelvic and sacral joints
- Piriformis and hip flexor muscles
- Sacrotuberous and round ligaments
- Lumbar spine
- Home exercises that are similar to midwife exercises
Reach out to us at Rothrock Chiro and Rehab to learn more about the whole treatment protocol. Listen to THE FULL PODCAST on this topic right now!
