Pregnancy brings significant physical changes as the body adapts to support a growing baby. Changes in posture, body weight, joint loading and movement can contribute to discomfort in areas such as the lower back, pelvis, hips and surrounding muscles. Our pregnancy health articles explore these changes, common musculoskeletal concerns during pregnancy and practical ways to support comfort and movement. We also provide information about chiropractic care during pregnancy, including how treatment approaches can be modified to suit the individual and the different stages of pregnancy.
