Many women are starting to utilize chiropractic care during their pregnancy. In fact, many medical doctors recommend chiropractic care during this period.  The rapid development, hormonal changes, laxity of ligaments, and shifting of weight on the spine, may cause discomfort and pain such as lower back, and midback.   Chiropractic can relieve the discomfort, and help normalize nervous system function.  This may also be noticed during delivery making it easier, faster, and more comfortable delivery.  Your Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Maria E. Manibog, specializes in the Webster technique. It is a gentle adjustment, aligning the pelvis, allowing the reduction of stress on the uterus, and round ligaments.  If the baby becomes breech before delivery, the technique helps to reposition the baby for a easier delivery, and labor. Adjustment modifications are made during each stage of pregnancy.  Health For Life Chiropractic, is located in downtown San Leandro, at 369 Juana Avenue.  Please call at (510) 357-1351 for a Complimentary Consultation and 20 min. prenatal massage!!!
