You definitely have company.  There are many people who suffer from back pain. Relief from back pain is quick with a call to a reputable and proficient Concord chiropractor.

Chiropractic does not have anything to do with surgical or drug-related practice; the chiropractor cures the patient by working on his or her spine. Chiropractic techniques are known to improve spine function and to reduce pain, simply by removing spinal restrictions. Typical chiropractic treatment involves sudden, but controlled, pressure on certain areas of the spine. However, the patient might be a tiny bit (okay, a whole lot) surprised! However, you need not be scared of the sudden cracking sound because in a chiropractic treatment instead of “breaking” your back the spine is “fixed” and brought back to its natural shape and function. Chiropractors also use massage techniques to relax the muscles.

Low back pain occurs in a variety of forms. There are times when one feels a dull ache, and there is also back pain that is experienced by the sufferer as sharp and severe. Along with the pain, the person suffering from back pain may not be able to stand up straight or even make normal body movements. Some people have backache for a few days, but some people feel acute pain that endures for weeks – chronic low back pain lasts for over 3 months. Getting a friend to walk on your back is not going to help; visiting a chiropractor can!

Taking advantage of the services offered by a qualified chiropractor will help you to avoid the possible complications that could arise from taking drugs or undergoing surgery to combat low back pain.

To get relief from your annoying back aches, chiropractic treatment is the best – And, you will be doing a lot of good to your liver when you don’t put drugs into your system!

Your Concord chiropractor offers a complete range of services that are all dedicated to improving your overall health and well-being.

As is obvious to anyone with a set of eyes, your body is going through a variety of changes, and these changes will continue as the pregnancy progresses. One change that goes basically unnoticed is your body’s increased production of the hormone elastin. This hormone is designed to relax the tendons in the pelvis. This relaxation allows the pelvis more flexibility during the birthing process to make delivering the baby easier.

This process, although designed to help the mother during labor, can create a lot of back pain in the months leading up to the birth. The elastin is being released in greater amounts as the months go on, which allows the pelvis to become increasingly more unstable. Add to that the gradual increase in the size of the baby and uterus, and you have the recipe for severe low back pain. As an Oxnard Chiropractor I see many pregnant women in my practice in my clinic for a variety of symptoms, but as a rule it is for their low back pain.

A bonus to seeing a chiropractor routinely during your pregnancy is that it has been shown to actually decrease labor time. Why is that you ask? Simply put, if the pelvis is where it needs to be, the muscles contracting during the labor process are more efficient because they don’t have to fight past misaligned joints.

To answer the second question from the introductory paragraph, most assuredly chiropractic care during your pregnancy is safe. Chiropractic is not only safe and beneficial in relieving the low back pain associated with pregnancy, but other symptoms like heartburn, nausea, swelling, and so on. Certain trained chiropractors can also help mothers who have a breached baby. This is done by using the Webster Technique, a low force technique to manipulate the uterus and get the baby into the proper presentation for delivery. A simple Google search on the Webster Technique can give you much more information.

In summation, not only is chiropractic safe for pregnant women, it is also very beneficial in helping with the symptoms associated with their pregnancy. To any pregnant women out there reading this, please go to see your local chiropractor, or if you live or work in the area, look up your Oxnard Chiropractor. We can make you feel a lot more comfortable during your pregnancy, and we can even make the labor process easier.
