image of pregnant woman performing exercises to help with back painBack pain during pregnancy is not an unusual event. Need proof? Simply ask any pregnant woman! It's no fun to have pain during such a happy time in life. You don't have to suffer with it though.

Your St Peters chiropractor at Old Mill Chiropractic sees quite a few St Peters pregnant women in practice and helps them. Additionally, articles about spinal manipulation and chiropractic Cox Technic treatment and exercise point to the opportunity for St Peters pregnancy back pain relief. Often, a combined approach is best.

A multimodal approach to MOM (Don't you love acronyms?! This one stands for Musculoskeletal and Obstetric Management.) that incorporates different methods gives the better relief. In addition to standard obstetric care, the pregnant women in this study also received manual therapy, stabilization exercises and patient education from their chiropractic physician specialists. These women displayed significant declines in pain and disability. (1)

Additionally, Old Mill Chiropractic's approach to pregnancy-related back pain often includes Cox Technic which is published as reducing pain for a woman in just one visit and giving her complete resolution of pain in 8 visits. (2)

So, make a chiropractic appointment for yourself or your pregnant loved one. Old Mill Chiropractic offers spinal manipulation as well as stabilization exercise advice to help get the pregnant woman out of pain and back to appreciating this exciting time of her life.
