Get Relief from Prenatal Lower Back Pain with Help from Chiropractic Centers of Drs. Campanella & Olivacz

Pregnancy can take a toll on your body, especially your lower back. If you are experiencing prenatal lower back pain, do not suffer in silence. Visit Chiropractic Centers of Drs. Campanella & Olivacz in Havre de Grace or North Park, MD, for effective chiropractic treatment and pain relief.

Adjust Your Posture

As your pregnant belly grows, it puts strain on your lower back muscles. This can cause pain, tightness, and spasms. Be mindful of your posture, stand up straight and align your ears, shoulders, and hips. When sitting, use a small pillow or cushion to provide extra lower back support. Avoid slouching and bend at the knees when picking things up. Seeing our chiropractor near you can help adjust your posture and alignment.

Try Heat and Cold Therapy

Applying heat and ice is an easy at-home remedy for lower back pain. Heat increases blood flow to relax tight muscles. Cold reduces inflammation and numbs sore areas. Try using a heating pad or warm compress on your lower back for 15 minutes a few times a day. You can also alternate with a cold pack wrapped in a towel. Check with our prenatal chiropractor first about proper application and duration.

Get Chiropractic Adjustments

See our chiropractor specially trained in prenatal and pediatric care for adjustments. Gentle chiropractic adjustments can realign your pelvis and spine to take pressure off your lower back. The Webster technique is often used to restore proper pelvic alignment and balance. Most women experience significant pain relief with regular chiropractic treatments throughout pregnancy.

Stretch and Strengthen

Simple stretches can help increase flexibility and range of motion in your lower back. Try basic moves like knee to chest, cat/cow pose, and pelvic tilts. Check with our chiropractor before starting any new exercises. The chiropractor may also recommend specific stretches and exercises to strengthen your core and back. This provides added support during pregnancy.
