Chiropractor?!

edited March 2011 in Pregnant
Does anyone know if its safe to go to a chiropractor or has been to one while pregnant? Im 19 weeks and my back lower left hip is killing me... I feel like the tin man from the wizard of oz when I bend or sit at a certain angle.

  • I go religiously when pregnant. Helps with the pain. Keeps everything in line. Makes for easier delivery when things r lined up. Most chiros have a pregnancy table (asj before selecting a chiro) and the center where ur tummy goes drops down so ur not puttin much preasure on it
  • You kno that's the exact question I have I used to go before I got pregnant now I'm 22wks week and my left hip kills me!
  • Im 17 weeks and have been going to the Chiro. The Dr does adjust gently, but she also does some massaging techniques to get deeper since she cant adjust too hard. I have scoliosis, so if i dontgo Im in constant pain
  • Yes, chiropractor! I saw one throughout my first pregnancy. I give him all the credit for my quick and easy delivery. It's important to have your hips adjusted so they can expand properly. Good luck.
  • Yep completely safe.
  • I had the same question thanks for asking
  • Thank you ladies! Im in desperate need now I just have to find one :)
