Pregnancy and Chiropractic Care in Orem
Our pregnant patients hold a special place in our hearts – we honor you! Our main goals are to get and keep you sleeping well, comfortable, active, and ultimately to prepare your body for labor and delivery. We know that your health and comfort during pregnancy is vitally important to the well-being of your baby, so we want to make sure you are well taken care of throughout your pregnancy. It’s also nice to know that receiving care during pregnancy helps the body return back to normal after labor and delivery.
Webster Technique Certified
Dr. Erickson is certified in the Webster Technique through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. The Webster Technique is a specific pregnancy-oriented evaluation and adjustment technique that helps the body achieve balance and reduce tension to promote happier, healthier pregnancies. It has been known to decrease stress directly in the pelvis and uterus, which is a common cause of breech position.
A Gentle Adjustment, and a Tailored Plan
Chiropractic care is extremely safe and effective for pregnant women. Dr. Erickson is well-versed in comfortable adjusting techniques for expecting moms, and will walk you through anything your are nervous about.
Your evaluation won’t include any X-rays. Instead, we take a comprehensive history and a specific pregnancy exam to assess your immediate needs and get you comfortable again. The frequency of your visits is based on your unique needs, goals and condition. Dr. Erickson will thoroughly discuss his recommendations with you, and the amount of care you receive is always up to you.
