Empowered Birth

Just as you would take time to prepare for a marathon, it is wise to  take time to prepare for birth. Chiropractic care is an important part of any prenatal team. Making sure that your body is functioning at a higher level, allows you and your baby to work better together and ideally follow the path of least resistance. Regular chiropractic care combined with other things, including, but not limited to physical therapy, acupuncture, regular exercise and a healthy diet help support a healthy pregnancy.

Birth is usually the first traumatic event we experience in life. As the uterus contracts, your baby gets compressed and ideally makes their way through the birth canal. On occasion, babies need assistance to be born via c-section, or by other means, and they get pulled out into the world. The confines of pregnancy and the push and pull of labor can result in your baby having tension and restrictions or subluxations after birth. 

Just as we have done with our own children, We want to make sure your children's spines are subluxation free, so they can start their journey off strong! As a gift, families under regular chiropractic may qualify to receive a complimentary checkup for their newborn within the first month of birth, others may qualify to receive a discount.

 Although Dr. Erica chose to have unmedicated births with all of her children, for unforeseen reasons, she ended up with a cesarean section with her first born. After much healing, physically and emotionally, she has gone on to have five vaginal births after her cesarean (VBAC) at home with her other children. The contrast between births, prepared her with a unique perspective to support families on their journey, wherever it may lead.
