Chiropractic and Pregnancy - 5 Benefits. Your Hawthorn Chiropractor

5 Benefits of Chiropractic care during Pregnancy ...🤰⁣


1. Reduced labour time.

Research suggests that women under Chiropractic during pregnancy experienced up to 33% less labour time. Wow. 🙌⁣


2. Decreased pain.

Back pain during pregnancy can be anything from a slight niggle to full blown debilitating pain. Chiropractic can help.😀⁣


3. Feeling Connected

Is there ever a more important time to feel connected to your body? Staying in good alignment is imperative for staying connected. 🙏⁣


4. Optimal pelvic symmetry.

Obviously, having a pelvis well aligned will affect the area of the pelvis for bubs to grow and descend into. Keep your pelvis healthy.🤱⁣


5. Optimal foetal positioning.

A baby that is comfortable in the uterus is more likely to adopt an ideal position for healthy growth and healthy delivery. Having a healthy spine and pelvis contributes to muscles and ligaments holding firm and supportive, not tight and restrictive. 👼⁣
.
A belly pillow helps mums lay on their tummy (see arrow) to get checked and bubs has room inside the pillow (like a donut ring) to fall into. Safe and gentle.

Crab Walk Exercise For Help With Low Back Pain

About 6 months ago I was running really well. I’d got to 10km in my training and really happy with the pace I was setting (about 4.50/k pace) and them my knee blew up. Ahhhrgggrhhhh!

From then it was a constant battle to get any runs in without my leg tightening, pulling on my knee and blowing up again and again.

WHY?????

I finally found the solution, it was because my Glutes were weak. So I started strengthening them using this exercise called the Crab Walk and I’ve been good since then.

Give it go and let me know about the BURN you get in the glutes.

My Favourite Exercise For People With Lower Back Pain

I'm often asked which exercises should be done by people who have been seeing me for Low back pain.

I share my favourite exercise for the lower back.

This is not an exercise for someone who is in acute pain and is finding it hard to move. This is for someone who wants to start to strengthen their lower back and regain proper control of the muscles and supporting structures.

This exercise is best done in conjunction with a proper care plan by your Chiropractor. I'd love to know how you go. Remember slow and controlled is better.

Headaches and Back Pain - study finds a link.

Headaches and back pain are two of the most common ailments that people seek help for. Both these conditions can be life changing, They can prevent people living a normal life. The burden on the individual and the health care system is nothing short of catastrophic, costing billions of dollars every year, days off work etc.

New research has looked into people suffering from either Back Pain or Headaches and found that if you are someone that either has headaches OR back pain - you are twice as likely to suffer from the other.

This result from looking at 14 different studies, involving hundreds of thousands of people, suggests that treating back pain and headaches separately, may be the wrong approach.

This falls in line with our approach at Auburn South Chiropractic, where we take the whole individual in to account. We are always looking to the underlying cause, looking at the whole body to find out why it’s not working properly. We don’t just look at one part of the spine, we look at it all. We realise that the symptom and the underlying cause may be in different locations.

Health can be tricky, but to start with getting your spine right, is a very good start.

Yours in health.
