According to a recent study at a Houston chiropractor clinic in Houston, Tx, 90 percent of women who turn to Chiropractic care during pregnancy have sought out help due to problems with pelvic pain. For 30 percent of the women, Chiropractic was their first treatment choice.

The study collected data from the first 100 pregnant women to arrive at the clinic after the study began.

The study also found that:

Those who had never had back pain before waited the shortest time before seeking treatment.

The longer patients waited to seek Chiropractic care, the more pain sites they experienced and the more areas of the spine required treatment.

Chiropractic has been very successful at eliminating several other problems connected to pregnancy, such as:

• The need for Caesarian sections has been reduced by being able to get a baby out of a breech position with Chiropractic adjustments.
• Chiropractic has been known to reduce labor time in delivery.
• Chiropractic can reduce the pain during, before, and after delivery.
• Chiropractic reduces low back pain during pregnancy.
• Chiropractic improves success rates of In Vitro fertilization.
• Chiropractic care can definitely make pregnancy, labor and delivery easier for mother and child.
