Pregnancy Chiro

Pregnancy brings incredible change — physically, hormonally and emotionally. As your body adapts to support a growing baby, shifts in posture, ligament laxity and changes in weight distribution can place increased stress on the spine and pelvis. It’s common to
experience lower back pain, pelvic discomfort, rib pain, neck tension and postural fatigue during this time.

At Duncraig Chiropractic, we provide gentle, pregnancy-specific care focused on supporting spinal structure and nervous system function throughout each stage of pregnancy. Our goal is to help you maintain comfort, mobility and balance as your body
changes.

We continue to utilise Advanced BioStructural Correction™ (ABC™) throughout pregnancy, as it is a safe, specific and pregnancy-friendly approach. ABC™ focuses on correcting structural shifts without excessive force, making it well suited to the changing
pregnant body. Where appropriate, care may also incorporate supportive positioning, soft tissue techniques, and other complementary methods tailored to your individual symptoms
and stage of pregnancy.

Every visit begins with a detailed history and thorough examination. In most cases, imaging is avoided during pregnancy unless clinically necessary. All techniques are adapted to prioritise your safety and comfort.

We also support mothers in preparing for birth and navigating the postnatal period — including the physical demands of feeding, carrying and caring for a newborn.

If you’re planning to fall pregnant, a pre-pregnancy structural check is recommended — particularly if you have a history of falls, trauma, disc injuries or spinal degeneration. Optimising structure beforehand can help your body adapt more efficiently to the changes ahead.
