PREGNANCY & CHIROPRACTIC
Your Body, Your Baby, Your Health
Pregnancy is an amazing journey, and your body goes through a lot to support your growing baby. That’s why it’s so important to keep your body strong, balanced, and healthy--especially your nervous system, which controls every organ, including those involved in pregnancy and birth.
Even the slightest nerve interference between your brain and body can affect how you feel—and how your baby develops. Dr. Rich uses the Gonstead Method to gently and precisely adjust your spine, helping your body work the way it’s meant to--naturally and without drugs.

Is it safe during pregnancy?
Absolutely! Dr. Rich is trained in caring for pregnant women, and chiropractors have been safely helping moms for over 100 years.
How late in pregnancy can I get adjusted?
Right up to delivery! Some women even get adjusted during labor.
Do I need to have a problem to see a chiropractor while pregnant?
Not at all. Just like you get regular checkups for weight and blood pressure, spinal checkups help make sure your nervous system is working well—so both you and your baby stay as healthy as possible.
Can my baby get chiropractic care too?
Yes! Birth can be hard on a baby’s spine, and even newborns can benefit from gentle chiropractic checkups. If your baby seems fussy, gassy, not sleeping well, or not eating properly, it could be their way of saying something’s off. A simple adjustment may help restore comfort and balance—and bring back those happy baby smiles.

CHILDREN & CHIROPRACTIC
"But My Child’s Back Doesn’t Hurt..."
That’s a common thought—but chiropractic care isn’t just about back pain.
Just like you take your child for regular checkups for their teeth, vision, or hearing, a spinal checkup is just as important—maybe even more. The spine protects the nervous system, which sends messages from the brain to every part of the body. If something blocks those messages, the body can’t work the way it should.
This kind of blockage, called a subluxation, happens when a spinal bone shifts out of place. It may not cause pain right away, but it can still affect how your child’s body grows, develops, and stays healthy.
Regular spinal checkups help catch these issues early--before they turn into problems. It’s a simple step that helps support your child’s health now and in the future.
