The Fourth Trimester: Postpartum Chiropractic Care

So much attention is placed on pregnancy and birth that it’s easy to forget the fourth trimester (the three months after delivery) is a vital phase for both mother and baby. During this time, the body is recovering from birth, hormones are shifting, and sleep is often interrupted. Many new mothers experience physical tension, fatigue, and emotional highs and lows.

Postpartum chiropractic care is a gentle way to support your recovery. After birth, the body needs time and care to return to balance. Pelvic alignment, core support, and spinal health are key to feeling grounded and strong in this new chapter. Whether you had a vaginal birth or a cesarean. chiropractic adjustments can help ease tension, promote mobility, and support physical healing.

Carrying and feeding a newborn also places new stress on the upper back, shoulders, and neck. Many new moms find that gentle adjustments help reduce the physical strain from hours of holding and nursing their baby.

Beyond the physical, this is a deeply emotional time. Many mothers appreciate having a space where they can focus on themselves, even for a brief visit. We honor this transition and meet each new mom with care, compassion, and personalized support.
