Care that helps you feel better, move better, and live better
Prenatal Chiropractic Care at Align Family Chiropractic
Pregnancy is a time of incredible change — physically, emotionally, and neurologically. At Align Family Chiropractic, our prenatal care is designed to support your body as it adapts, helping you move with more comfort, balance, and confidence throughout pregnancy and into postpartum recovery.
Our approach is gentle, intentional, and tailored to each stage of pregnancy, with the goal of supporting both you and your growing baby.
How Prenatal Chiropractic Care Helps
As your body changes, shifts in posture, joint mobility, and muscle tension are common. Prenatal chiropractic care focuses on supporting the spine, pelvis, and nervous system so your body can adapt more efficiently.
Many patients seek prenatal care to help with:
• Low back pain and pelvic discomfort
• Hip tightness and round ligament tension
• Postural changes and core fatigue
• Neck and shoulder tension
• Preparing the body for labor and delivery
All techniques are modified for comfort and safety, with care tailored to your trimester and individual needs.
What a Prenatal Visit Includes
Each prenatal visit is designed to be supportive and restorative.
Your session may include:
• A gentle chiropractic adjustment adapted for pregnancy
• Soft tissue and muscle therapy to reduce tension and improve circulation
• Techniques chosen intentionally based on how your body is feeling that day
Muscle therapy may include gentle soft tissue work, percussion massage, dry needling (when appropriate), or other supportive techniques — always with prenatal precautions in mind.
Dry Needling During Pregnancy
Dry needling can be a helpful tool for pregnancy-related muscle tension when performed thoughtfully and conservatively.
During pregnancy:
• We avoid needling the abdomen, sacrum, and upper lumbar spine
• Extra caution is used in the first trimester
• Treatment focuses on areas like the neck, shoulders, upper back, hips, and legs in the second and third trimesters
This cautious approach helps relieve muscle tension and support movement while prioritizing safety for both parent and baby.
Every pregnancy is different — and your care should reflect that. Our goal is not to force your body into a specific plan, but to support how your body is adapting and changing.
Care is always:
• Individualized
• Gentle and evidence-informed
• Adapted to your stage of pregnancy
• Focused on comfort, safety, and long-term wellness

Movement Support Beyond the Table: BirthFit Programs
We believe prenatal care doesn’t stop when your visit ends. To support your body beyond in-office care, we proudly offer access to BirthFit programs for pregnancy and postpartum recovery.
BirthFit is a movement-based program designed to support:
• Strength and mobility during pregnancy
• Breathwork and body awareness for labor preparation

When paired with prenatal chiropractic care, BirthFit helps create a strong foundation for delivery day and supports a smoother, more intentional postpartum recovery.
