Fishel Chiropractic announces the availability of prenatal chiropractic care in St. Louis, MO, designed to support women throughout pregnancy. This care utilizes the Webster Technique to restore pelvic balance and reduce tension in supporting ligaments, contributing to comfort for both mother and baby. The approach addresses common pregnancy-related issues and prepares the body for birth.
Pregnancy involves substantial physical changes that often lead to discomfort in the neck, back, hips, and pelvis. The Webster Technique, applied at Fishel Chiropractic, optimizes pelvic alignment to provide more space for fetal growth and movement. This can enhance maternal sleep and mobility. A narrative review published in the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine indicates that chiropractic care during pregnancy serves as a safe and effective method for managing musculoskeletal symptoms.
Research suggests that proper alignment may facilitate smoother labor and delivery. For instance, a retrospective review noted that first-time mothers receiving chiropractic care throughout pregnancy experienced an average 25 percent reduction in labor duration, while mothers with prior births saw a 31 percent reduction. These findings stem from observations of improved fetal positioning.
The Webster Technique has shown promise in addressing breech presentations. A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics reported an 82 percent success rate in resolving musculoskeletal causes of intrauterine constraint associated with breech positions. Experts note that this technique focuses on reducing sacral subluxation and balancing pelvic muscles, though results can vary based on individual circumstances.
Postpartum care at Fishel Chiropractic aids recovery by restoring nervous system balance, correcting posture, and aligning the pelvis. This helps alleviate tension from newborn care activities. It targets pelvic discomfort, breastfeeding-related strain, and pain in the low back and neck. Benefits may extend to emotional regulation, sleep improvement, hormonal balance, and relief from wrist issues.
The practice tailors services to individual needs, serving families across life stages, including newborns, children, expectant mothers, and adults. General adjustments address back, neck, joint, and headache pain, with posture correction included.
Dr. Danielle Fishel, owner and head chiropractor at Fishel Chiropractic, specializes in prenatal and postnatal care. "Prenatal chiropractic care helps manage common discomforts during pregnancy and supports pelvic alignment for delivery," said Dr. Danielle Fishel. "The Webster Technique offers a gentle method to foster a more comfortable pregnancy experience."
Additional services incorporate acupuncture for pain management, stress reduction, and energy support. Lactation assistance addresses breastfeeding challenges to help establish routines. Pediatric adjustments promote growth, development, immune function, and posture in children.
Fishel Chiropractic recognizes the connection between prenatal and postpartum health. Alignment during pregnancy may ease the transition to motherhood, while postpartum adjustments mitigate strains from new responsibilities. This integrated approach supports family wellness.
Low back pain, prevalent during and after pregnancy, receives focused attention through lumbar adjustments. The practice ensures safe and effective care for these conditions.
Third-party commentary highlights the role of chiropractic in pregnancy. Experts from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association emphasize that techniques like Webster promote optimal fetal positioning without direct manipulation of the baby. PubMed sources affirm the technique's obstetric implications, noting its potential to avoid more invasive interventions.
"Prenatal chiropractic care extends support to maternal health in meaningful ways," added Dr. Danielle Fishel. "Postpartum adjustments assist in restoring physical balance, allowing mothers to engage fully with their newborns."
