Pregnancy-related back pain & sciatica affects many expecting moms, but here’s the truth: you DON’T have to “just deal with it.”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This discomfort can happen when:
1️⃣ Your growing belly shifts your center of gravity
2️⃣ Pregnancy hormones relax your ligaments (specifically a hormone literally called “relaxin”!)
3️⃣ Your baby puts pressure on your sciatic nerve
4️⃣ Your pelvis becomes misaligned during pregnancy
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What you might experience:
👶 Sharp, shooting pain down your legs
👶 Numbness or tingling in your lower back, hips, or legs
👶 Difficulty with daily activities
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The good news? All our docs at West U Wellness have hours and hours of extra training in a specific, gentle, and safe prenatal chiropractic adjustment style (the Webster Technique) that can help balance your pelvis and reduce nerve irritation, allowing your body to adapt better to these pregnancy changes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We focus on working with your body’s natural ability to adapt during pregnancy rather than just masking symptoms.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Many moms in our practice report marked improvement in their symptoms after being under regular care!

Remember: Pregnancy is a journey of transformation, but it doesn’t have to be a journey of unnecessary discomfort. 💕
