Moms at All Stages Should Get Chiropractic

By Brandi Goodman

Many mothers have a hard job from day one. You spend your entire pregnancy feeling tired, sick, and sore. When the baby arrives, it's really no different. You still get little sleep and feel completely exhausted. Even as your kids age and become toddlers, young children, and teens, your work still isn't finished. That's precisely why moms at all stages should get chiropractic.

Expecting Moms

Expectant mothers carry a new life inside of them. Your belly grows and grows, putting pressure on places you didn't even realize existed before. Your back aches. Your feet swell. Pregnancy has lots to complain about. The good news is, chiropractic care can help. See a chiropractor who understands gentle manipulation techniques necessary for safety. You can get an adjustment that will ease your discomfort, help with sciatic pain, and keep your hips feeling as good as possible as they open and shift to encourage birth.

Moms of Newborns

You've now had your baby and have a bundle of joy in your arms. That baby is still on the same sleep schedule you were keeping during pregnancy. That means being up at night to handle their needs and getting far less sleep than you need to function. You could have also thrown your spine and body out of whack during the birthing process, keeping your discomfort up. Chiropractic can help to put your body back into alignment, as well as offer some relaxation and time away for yourself. You may be able to improve the sleep you do get when your body is recovered.

Toddler Moms

Your toddler and older child can both be a lot of work. You now have chasing to do, games to play, and are still feeling the tiredness. Get chiropractic so you can keep your body moving well and your joints free from aches. It can also help promote that sleep you're still longing for.

Moms of Teenagers

Are you constantly bending down to pick up your teenager's clothes they leave on the floor? Do you find yourself yelling a lot and constantly feeling stressed about the bad behaviors your teens are exhibiting? The stress, tension, and back pain won't soon go away with a teenager in the house. Get chiropractic, however, and you can find some relief for at least a little while. 

Being a mom isn't easy, yet the job needs to get done. No matter what stage you're at, chiropractic can bring about many benefits for your life. If you're getting chiropractic and feeling healthy and well, you're much more likely to stay engaged -- and awake -- with your kids and able to mom to the best of your abilities.
