Back or pelvic pain during pregnancy?
Back and pelvic pain is very common during pregnancy and after giving birth. Common doesn't mean you have to just live with it.
Check the common signsDoes any of this sound like you?
A lot of people put up with these for months, hoping it goes away on its own. If you nodded at two or more, it's worth getting checked.
- 01Lower back ache that grows each trimester
- 02Sharp pain at the front or back of the pelvis
- 03Pain turning over in bed
- 04Numbness or tingling in the legs
- 05Back and wrist strain from carrying your baby
- 06Posture changes after giving birth
So why does it keep coming back?
Painkillers and massage help for a few days. But if whatever is causing it doesn't change, the pain usually returns. For most people it's a mix of these.
Changing posture
Your centre of gravity moves forward, increasing the curve and load on the lower back.
Relaxin hormone
Ligaments loosen to prepare for birth, making the pelvis less stable.
Weight gain
Extra load on the spine, hips and feet.
Carrying and feeding
After birth, lifting and feeding positions strain the back and neck.
What we do differently
Many of our patients tried massage, painkillers or a few sessions somewhere else before coming to us. This is what changes when you see us.

Book my first visitIs chiropractic safe in pregnancy?

Yes. Let the clinic know when you book so they can plan the room.
How much is the first visit?

Who will I see?
A Doctor of Chiropractic, usually working together with a physiotherapist. Meet them on the Our Clinicians page.
Is an adjustment painful?
Adjustments are done by hand and are non-invasive. For children and seniors we use Activator therapy, a gentler instrument-assisted option.
When should I see a doctor first?
See a medical doctor or go to emergency first if you have loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin, weakness that is getting worse, pain after a fall or accident, fever or unexplained weight loss, or a sudden severe headache. If our assessment finds anything that needs medical tests, we refer you.
