Maternity Chiropractic to Promote a More Comfortable Pregnancy

Dr. Joanne Santiago and Dr. Joelle Santiago offer chiropractic care as a safe, gentle and drug free alternative to relieve discomfort during pregnancy. The care that our Avon chiropractors provide plays an important role in ensuring that the mother’s body and spine are functioning normally.

Benefits to Receiving Pregnancy Chiropractic Care at Our Avon Facility
During pregnancy, our chiropractors work on both the pelvis and spine to promote balanced movement and alignment. Once the pelvis is in a balanced state, the ligaments connected to the uterus maintain a stable suspension for the uterus. Relieving tension not only improves the mother’s comfort but improves the comfort of the baby. Regular chiropractic care also gives the baby more room to grow and allows them to resettle into the best position for birth.

Whether you are experiencing pain prior to your bump starting to show, are close to full term, or are simply checking to make sure your body is functioning to its best ability, Dr. Joanne and Dr. Joelle are here to help you during this special time.
