Pregnancy frequently creates such joy
to life, but for some it brings back pain and even sometimes leg pain. The baby
just doesn’t recognize not to lie on specific nerves! Then there’s that pesky weight
gain that is crucial for developing a healthy baby. Luckily, there’s
chiropractic care. Chiropractic care in Auburn at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.
is
gentle, safe and effective for relieving back pain in our Auburn
expectant women throughout their pregnancies as well as after their deliveries.
Pregnant women get back pain. It’s a
pretty well known fact now. In a recent study, 73% of women in their first to
third trimesters of pregnancy report low back pain. What brings it on? Standing
or sitting for a long time for 43.9%. Housework for 43.4%. If the pregnant woman
had a urinary infection or higher disability score, the low back pain was
worse. What helped them in this study? 51% improved with rest. (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. has some other approaches that Auburn pregnant women find relieving as well.
Spinal manipulation works, too, in
relieving pregnancy related back pain as well as back pain after the baby’s
delivery. In a study of women aged 23 to 42 years, pain decreased from 7.3 to
2.0 as did disability compared to a control group whose pain only dropped from
7.0 to 6.5. Not a bad outcome for just 4 treatments over 8 weeks! (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.
so enjoys treating our Auburn pregnant ladies during their
pregnancies and after their deliveries. Everyone is so happy!
As for obstretricians who take care
of expectant mothers, 77% of those surveyed responded that chiropractic care
was effective for some musculoskeletal complaints. 40% said they referred
patients for chiropractic care. 56% were interested in learning more about
chiropractic care. (3) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. is delighted with any opportunity to
talk with our Auburn medical colleagues about our place in
healthcare and particularly chiropractic’s effectiveness in care for spinal
conditions and spinal pain in Auburn – pregnant or not – back pain
sufferers.
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. excitedly shares the
chiropractic spinal manipulation protocols of Cox Technic with interested
parties. Cox Technic itself is gentle and relieving for anyone with back pain
or neck pain. It is amazingly relieving for women with pregnancy-related
back pain. It is also quite adaptable in positioning to accommodate a woman
in her early pregnancy – lying on her stomach if that is comfortable – as well
as much later in her pregnancy – lying on her side. One published report about
a pregnant woman with sciatica (leg pain) shares that relief was noted after
the first treatment with complete resolution of her subjective and objective
findings after 8 visits. (4)
