Seeing a chiropractor during pregnancy
A chiropractor helps you stay healthy and well throughout your pregnancy. Your body goes through many changes during this time, which can lead to fatigue, discomfort, and tension. Chiropractic care supports your body in a natural way, helping you feel stronger, more flexible, and better able to recover from common pregnancy-related symptoms.
Chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy are gentle and tailored to your body. Many pregnant women describe the care as calming. They feel more connected to their body and their baby, which makes the pregnancy feel lighter, more enjoyable, and more nurturing.
Healthy pregnancy
Gentle chiropractic adjustments help release tension in your spine so your body can move with more ease as your pregnancy progresses. When your spine is balanced, your posture naturally improves, allowing your growing belly to be carried in a way that feels more supported. This reduces strain on areas that often feel vulnerable during pregnancy, such as your back, pelvis, tailbone, and groin. More importantly, releasing this tension allows your nervous system to function with greater coherence. Your brain and body communicate more freely, helping you adapt to the constant changes of pregnancy. Many women notice that they sleep better, feel more energised, and experience a deeper sense of connection, not only with their own body, but with the little life growing inside them.
Supporting your baby’s natural development
Your baby develops in response to everything happening in your body. When your nervous system is clear and calm, it creates a stable and harmonious environment for your baby to grow. Chiropractic care supports this natural intelligence by improving your adaptability and reducing unnecessary stress in your system. When your body is functioning at its best, you’re giving your baby the space and conditions to do the same. This is how many parents choose to begin nurturing their child’s wellbeing even before birth, by caring for the system that cares for the baby.
Preparing for a safe and easy birth
A balanced spine and a responsive nervous system help your body prepare for labour in the most natural way. When your pelvis moves freely and your nervous system is able to coordinate the processes of birth, you feel more grounded and confident. Women who receive chiropractic care throughout pregnancy often describe their birth as smoother, more connected, and more in tune with their body’s innate wisdom. While every birth is unique, creating the right conditions can help your body do what it’s naturally designed to do. Your body, when supported, is capable of extraordinary things.
Chiropractic care for your baby
After birth, both mother and baby go through an important period of adaptation. Birth places significant physical pressure on the body, and babies often hold tension patterns from their journey into the world. Gentle chiropractic care helps release this tension and supports your baby’s developing nervous system. Parents choose to bring their babies to help support ease in feeding, settling, digestion, and general comfort. More broadly, they come because they want to give their child the best possible start. A clear, well-functioning nervous system allows a baby to grow, explore, and connect with the world from a place of ease. With a healthy spine and a calm, adaptive nervous system, you are laying the foundation for your baby’s wellbeing in the years to come.

- More balanced nervous system, helping you recover more quickly and naturally

- Shorter, smoother birth experience
Back pain during pregnancy
Back pain is very common during pregnancy, and for good reason. As your belly grows, more pressure is placed on your spine. Patterns of tension that never caused issues before can suddenly create discomfort once your body begins to change.
Back pain in early pregnancy (first trimester)
If you experience lower back pain early in your pregnancy (during the first trimester), hormones often play a role. These hormones soften the ligaments around your pelvis, which can make the pelvis less stable and less able to support the weight of your belly. This increases the load on your lower back, which may cause pain at the start of pregnancy. Even though hormones are involved, chiropractic care can support your body in adapting more easily. By improving stability and reducing tension in your spine and pelvis, your body can carry the growing baby with more ease, helping you recover from lower-back pain naturally.
Back pain later in pregnancy
Back pain that appears later in pregnancy is often related to pelvic instability. When your pelvis isn’t moving evenly, your body has a harder time distributing pressure as your baby grows. This can lead to persistent discomfort that makes daily activities, and the pregnancy itself, feel more challenging. Chiropractic care helps restore alignment and balance, allowing your body to adapt more comfortably as your pregnancy progresses. Many women find that they can enjoy their pregnancy more fully and feel fitter and more prepared for birth and motherhood.
Lower back pain during pregnancy
Lower back pain is one of the most common complaints during pregnancy. As your belly grows, your posture changes and additional pressure is placed on your spine. This can create tension and protective patterns in the lower back. Hormonal changes may also play a role, further affecting stability and comfort. Chiropractic care helps address these underlying patterns so your body can carry your pregnancy with more ease and less strain.
Examination for pregnancy-related low back pain
The chiropractor will conduct an examination for your pregnancy-related low back pain during your first visit. This helps us understand exactly what your body needs so we can support you in recovering and feeling well again, making it easier to fully enjoy your pregnancy.
Pelvic pain during pregnancy
Pelvic pain during pregnancy often begins around the fourth month. In many cases, the pelvis has been out of balance for a long time without you noticing it. During pregnancy, however, the extra pressure on your pelvis can make this imbalance more noticeable, causing pelvic pain for the first time. With gentle, targeted chiropractic adjustments, we help your pelvis return to a more balanced position. This supports your body in recovering from pelvic pain during pregnancy and helps create more stability and ease as your belly grows. It also reduces the likelihood of experiencing pelvic discomfort after giving birth.
Pelvic instability during pregnancy
Pelvic instability during pregnancy occurs when the joints of the pelvis become more mobile than usual. This happens because the ligaments that support the pelvis naturally become softer in preparation for birth. As a result, the SI joints and the pubic area can move more freely, which may lead to pain, stiffness, and a sense of being out of balance. Pelvic instability can make pregnancy feel physically challenging. The discomfort may limit your movement, and you might consider visiting a pelvic-floor physiotherapist. What many people don’t realise is that chiropractic care also offers gentle, effective support. A chiropractor looks at the underlying patterns contributing to your pelvic instability; the tension, misalignment, and imbalance in the spine and pelvis that affect how your body carries the pregnancy. By addressing these deeper causes, chiropractic care helps reduce discomfort and improve stability, allowing you to move with more ease. Many women also find that they recover more quickly after birth when their pelvis is better balanced during pregnancy.
Groin pain during pregnancy
Groin pain is quite common during pregnancy and can have several different causes. Sometimes it’s linked to pelvic tension that radiates into the groin. In that case, the discomfort is a direct extension of pelvic imbalance. But groin pain can also come from higher up, such as tension in the diaphragm that struggles to adapt to the increasing pressure from your growing baby. A visit to the chiropractor often brings quick relief. With gentle, specific techniques, we help release tension and restore ease in your spine. As your posture improves and your nervous system functions more effectively, your body can adapt more comfortably, allowing you to recover from groin pain during pregnancy.
Tailbone pain during pregnancy
Tailbone pain during pregnancy often comes from tension or imbalance in the ligaments and soft tissues around the pelvis. As your body adapts to pregnancy, these ligaments naturally become more flexible. When the pelvis isn’t fully aligned or balanced, the increased mobility can create pressure around the tailbone area and make sitting difficult. Chiropractic care uses gentle, specific techniques to ease tension in the pelvic ligaments and restore balance in the surrounding structures. As your pelvis moves more freely and your nervous system functions with greater ease, the discomfort around your tailbone can settle. This helps you sit more comfortably and enjoy your pregnancy with greater ease.
Pubic bone pain during pregnancy
Pain in the pubic bone can also occur during pregnancy. This discomfort is often connected to tension in the pelvis, lower back, or groin, which can radiate into the pubic area. When you experience this type of pain during pregnancy, seeing a chiropractor is a wise choice. The chiropractor looks at the deeper patterns causing the discomfort, like how your pelvis is moving, how your ligaments are adapting, and how your spine and nervous system are responding to the changes in your body. By addressing these underlying factors, we work toward a lasting solution so you can move with more ease and feel more comfortable throughout your pregnancy.
Chiropractic care for a breech pregnancy
If you are looking for support during a breech pregnancy, or your baby is in a pregnancy breech position, we invite you to visit one of our chiropractors. With gentle, specific techniques, we help create more space and balance in your pelvis so your baby has the opportunity to move more freely and, if possible, turn on their own. This approach is safe for both you and your baby and does not cause any pain. It is a natural way to support your body and prepare for the final stages of pregnancy.

Frequently asked questions
You are welcome to see our chiropractors throughout your entire pregnancy. In general, the earlier you start with care the better. However, we adjust the care to what your body needs at each stage, so the treatment continues to feel safe, gentle, and comfortable right up until your birth.
Many of our pregnant clients share that they feel safe, supported, and truly understood at Solar Chiropractic. They appreciate that the care is tailored to their body and that they feel relieved of pressure and tension, which helps reduce discomfort.

During your first appointment, we take the time to understand your health concerns and create a personalised care plan. This initial visit usually lasts around 30-45 minutes. Once we know what your body needs, the follow-up visits are shorter and more focused. You’ll first have a moment to relax on the table before the chiropractor begins the adjustments. These adjustments give your body exactly what it needs to support the self-healing process. So even though each session only lasts at most about 10 minutes, the healing process continues long after you leave the practice.
Yes, chiropractic care is very safe when performed by a qualified chiropractor. At Solar, every adjustment is delivered with precision, presence, and respect for your body’s natural rhythms. We don’t force or manipulate, we work with your body to help it find balance again. Research shows that chiropractic care is among the safest forms of healthcare available, and is far safer than common medications like ibuprofen. Our approach is gentle, specific, and focused on restoring proper function to your spine and nervous system. Most people experience chiropractic as deeply relaxing and even restorative, a way to reconnect with their body and support its innate capacity to heal and thrive.

What to expect
Your first visit
We’ll take the time to get to know you and explore how we can best support your health and healing. This comprehensive consultation includes a holistic health questionnaire, physical examination, posture scans, and a personal conversation about your health goals. If we determine that we can help you, you’ll receive a gentle chiropractic adjustment tailored to your body’s needs.
Intensive phase
In this stage, we focus on restoring balance in your spine and nervous system through precise, effective adjustments. The sessions are short yet powerful. Repetition is key as it helps teach your brain new, healthier neurological patterns. During this phase, we usually see you twice per week.
Stabilisation phase
Your body begins to adapt to its new balance. Muscles, discs, ligaments, and connective tissues get the chance to heal and strengthen. This will help prevent your body from slipping back into old, protective patterns. To support this process, adjustments are usually scheduled once per week.
Wellness care
We continue to support your health for as long as you feel it is best serving you. Just like eating well, moving your body, and giving yourself time to rest, regular chiropractic care is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Together, we’ll decide the rhythm that works best for you and your goals.
Even more insurers reimburse chiropractic care through their supplementary insurance. Want to know what your insurer covers? Check your insurer’s coverage.
