As a pregnant woman, one of the best things you can do for yourself and your baby is visit Dr. Bart Conn, a leading San Diego Chiropractor with the knowledge and experience in treating pregnant women with chiropractic care.. Chiropractic care provides so many benefits a pregnant body needs: a healthy, flexible spine, hips and pelvis; internal organs without postural stress and freedom from nerve stress. These are all essential for a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Accompanied by proper diet, exercise and avoiding drugs, alcohol and smoking, chiropractic care from Biophysics Chiropractic should be an essential part of a pregnancy health care regimen.

Being pregnant, you need to have your body as healthy and strong as possible in order to handle the body stress of pregnancy and childbirth. Dr. Conn's chiropractic care will help ensure that all body systems, especially the reproductive system including the uterus, ovaries and related organs function properly. If your body structure is causing the slightest nerve interference to these systems it could adversely affect you and the developing fetus.

Dr. Conn provides chiropractic care for pregnant women, and pregnant mothers, including examining your spinal column for spinal distortions or imbalances that cause nerve stress. These are known as vertebral subluxations which can affect the function of your entire body. If Dr. Conn finds subluxations in your body he will
correct them with chiropractic spinal adjustments.

Another benefit for seeking chiropractic care during pregnancy is that it is a drugless treatment. Drugs, whether prescription or over-the- counter, can harm the growing fetus. Almost all types of drugs and medications have been linked to fetal damage or malformations.

Chiropractic pre-natal care has been able to correct breech presentations in which the baby isn’t positioned properly for birth. Developed by the late Larry Webster, DC, the Webster Breech Technique relaxes the uterus, permitting the baby to turn naturally. It has been very successful in correcting a breech presentation.
