Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy in Overland Park, KS

Pregnancy is an exciting time, but it can also come with a lot of discomfort. As your body changes to support the growing baby, aches and pains are common, affecting your back, hips, pelvis, and legs. Chiropractic care is a safe and natural solution for managing these discomforts and supporting a healthier pregnancy.



At Nigus Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we provide specialized chiropractic care that can help alleviate lower back pain, sciatica, leg cramps, and even constipation during pregnancy. Our goal is to ensure that you’re as comfortable as possible as you go through these physical changes, setting the stage for a smoother pregnancy and labor.

The Impact of Pregnancy on Your Body

As your baby grows, your body undergoes a variety of changes. These shifts include:

• Increased weight and pressure on your lower back and pelvis
• Shifts in your center of gravity
• Changes in spinal alignment

As your center of gravity moves forward, stress is placed on your lower back, pelvis, and hips. The spinal curve (lordotic curve) deepens, which can result in discomfort or even injury to the vertebrae and joints. These changes can cause pain that radiates throughout the body, especially in the lower back and legs. Sciatica, a condition where pain travels down the leg due to nerve irritation, is also a common issue for pregnant women.



While many of these changes are natural, they can lead to chronic pain if not properly managed. This can make tasks such as breastfeeding, carrying your baby, or bending over difficult and painful.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help During Pregnancy

Chiropractic care offers a gentle and effective approach to relieving pain and restoring balance during pregnancy. At Nigus Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we provide personalized treatment plans that address the unique physical demands of pregnancy.



Benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy include:

• Pain relief from back pain, sciatica, and pelvic discomfort
• Improved spinal alignment and posture to reduce stress on your body
• Reduced need for pain medication
• Preparation for labor, helping the body function more effectively during delivery
• Better mobility for tasks like lifting, bending, and carrying your baby

Prenatal Chiropractic Care at Nigus Chiropractic & Acupuncture

Our chiropractors specialize in prenatal care, offering safe, non-invasive treatments designed for expectant mothers. Through a thorough examination and customized treatment plan, we will work to address your pain and ensure that your body is properly aligned and prepared for the physical challenges of pregnancy and childbirth.

By addressing spinal misalignments early on, chiropractic care can reduce labor duration and improve the overall birthing experience. Postpartum follow-up visits are also recommended to help restore your body and address any lingering discomfort from the changes that occurred during pregnancy.
