We treat many pregnant mums-to-be at the Hampstead Chiropractic Clinic in North London NW3. Treatment is extremely gentle (especially in the first trimester), and our chiropractors use specific techniques to encourage realignment of your lower back and pelvis as well as increase the space that the baby has to move around in, encouraging your baby to resettle in the ideal in-utero position.
Treatment can be beneficial for the new post-partum mothers to assess any structural changes that may have occurred during the labour, and/or delivery. Treatment is aimed at encouraging an easier delivery for both you and your baby.
Because pregnant women are often reluctant to take any over-the-counter pain relief or medication, they often turn to chiropractic care to help alleviate pains associated with pregnancy. In addition, we can also offer lifestyle advice (especially postural, nutritional and exercise advice) specific to the expectant mother
Our chiropractors have undergone special postgraduate training in treating pregnant women, in addition to the four or five year training taken when qualifying as a Chiropractors.
Treatment is very gentle and we provide a pregnancy pillow to accommodate the ‘bump’ and expectant baby so that you can comfortably lie face down. Often the mums to be don’t want to get up!

This is my first experience with Chiropractic care. I’m 6 months pregnant with twins and decided to give it a go. Since I started I have been feeling a lot of improvement with lower back pain and pelvic pain am quite happy about it. I would definitely recommend this clinic.
