Pregnancy Chiropractic in Las Cruces
Although many people don’t immediately think of chiropractic care for pregnancy, it is a safe and effective way to relieve pregnancy discomfort and function better, all the way up through birth. In fact, many studies have confirmed that women who receive regular chiropractic care during pregnancy have an easier and shorter labor and delivery, with fewer interventions than women who don’t receive chiropractic care.

Our Personal Approach
We don’t offer a cookie-cutter approach to care—Dr. Smith takes the time to listen to you and understand your concerns and issues, then creates a care plan specifically designed to address your needs.
If you have a lot of discomfort or mobility issues, we’ll see you more frequently until you’re feeling good. Then, when it’s closer to your delivery date, we’ll see you about once a week to help ensure your pelvis is aligned properly for childbirth.
Our Techniques
Your comfort is our primary concern, and we will modify our adjusting techniques to suit your preferences. Some moms-to-be prefer manual adjustments, while others find instrument-assisted adjustments more gentle and comfortable. It’s entirely up to you!
In addition to adjustments and soft tissue therapies, Dr. Smith uses RockTaping techniques to help support your belly and low back, especially as you get further along. This technique removes pressure from the low back and helps support the round ligaments, putting you in a better postural position as your center of gravity shifts.
