Pregnancy will give you that maternal glow, a whole new wardrobe and quite likely an aching back.  But there's help.

Why is my back aching all the time these days?
There are few things in life that put more stress on your spine than pregnancy. Your spine must adapt to posture and weight changes with each passing month and commonly the uncomfortable result is lower back pain. Many women have come to accept that back pain accompanies pregnancy and menstrual cycles. But it shouldn't have to. Your body was made to compensate and adapt naturally to pregnancy and if you are experiencing aches and pains, something is wrong and needs to be addressed. Not just for you but for your developing and growing child as well.

What can a chiropractor do?
A chiropractor is specially trained to locate and correct the problems that are causing your back pain. As well, many women find that their labour is shorter and more comfortable after having received chiropractic care during pregnancy.

I want to go to a chiropractor but i'm afraid 1 won't be comfortable during treatments.
Your chiropractor has special techniques and equipment that will help make you comfortable no matter what your stage of pregnancy. You'll be relaxed and best of all, you'll say good-bye to that aching back.

Chiropractors can help.
Chiropractors are doctors with over seven years university level education in the science and art of hands-on healing. They're the doctors who use treatments that are proven to be the safest and most effective in relieving back pain according to the Manga Report (a milestone study by the Ontario Ministry of Health). Call a chiropractor today and get relief from that aching back so your pregnancy will be as enjoyable as it should be.

Through gentle, precise adjustments your spine is returned to top form.
