During pregnancy, it’s important that your body is functioning at its best—for both your health and your baby’s development. At Connect Chiropractic in Christchurch, we highly recommend that expectant mothers receive regular chiropractic checks throughout pregnancy to support comfort, alignment, and overall wellbeing.

We use a chiropractic table specially designed for pregnancy, allowing mums-to-be to lie safely and comfortably face-down—even in the later stages of pregnancy.

Watch the video below for a glimpse into what a typical pregnancy chiropractic visit looks like at our clinic.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE DURING PREGNANCY

Pregnancy is a time when your body expresses incredible wisdom. The physical and hormonal changes that occur are both miraculous and, at times, challenging.

At Connect Chiropractic, our chiropractors are specifically trained and experienced in providing gentle, safe care for women at all stages of pregnancy. Chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy can help relieve common discomforts such as back pain, pelvic tension, and postural strain—supporting greater comfort as your body adapts and grows.

Regular chiropractic care throughout pregnancy may also contribute to better birth outcomes and help your baby settle into an optimal position for labour. All of our chiropractors are trained in the Webster Technique, a specialised approach designed to support pelvic alignment and ease during pregnancy.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE AFTER BIRTH

Labour can be an intense and transformative experience for both mother and baby. Even when everything goes smoothly, your body needs time to rest, recover, and adapt to life after birth. Continuing chiropractic care after pregnancy can help your body realign, ease tension, and support your overall wellbeing as you care for your newborn.

At Connect Chiropractic, we support new and expectant mothers—as well as their babies—through both of our clinics in Christchurch City and Ferrymead, proudly serving nearby communities including New Brighton, Burwood, Sumner, and Woolston.
