Many people have a misconception that pregnant moms can't seek Chiropractic care. However, that is not true! Chiropractic care is a completely safe practice for expecting mothers. In fact, it’s been proven numerous times that chiropractic care is both safe and effective when it comes to alleviating pains and discomforts associated with pregnancy and your changing body.
Here are some benefits of chiropractic treatment during pregnancy and how it can help with overall experience:
Alleviates Spinal Curve Discomfort & Back Pain
As your baby develops and grows heavier, your center of gravity shifts, which greatly alters your posture. This postural change can lead to misalignment of your spinal vertebrae or various other joints located in close proximity to the spine. Moreover, the growing protrusion of your abdomen typically causes the spine to curve too far forward, which often results in significant low back discomfort. An increased spinal curve can also limit your range of motion and affect your normal movement patterns.
At Live Well Chiropractic, Dr Siew Wei performs Webster technique, which is a gentle chiropractic adjustment that aligns the pelvis and includes a soft tissue release of associated muscle groups. It allows the pelvis to function properly during pregnancy. The technique reduces soft tissue tension that may cause uterine torsion which allows for an ideal environment for the baby to grow and move. This technique is also comfortable and safe for both yourself and your baby.
Improved Pelvic Balance
By visiting a Webster-Certified chiropractor during and after your pregnancy, your labor is more likely to go smoothly and without a breech baby. Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help maintain an excellent pelvic balance, so your baby can freely move into the correct delivery position. Furthermore, chiropractic treatment helps strengthen your immune system and contributes to the overall health of you and your baby, thus reducing unwanted symptoms or complications such as a cord prolapse or the need for a C-section delivery.
A Smoother & Healthier Pregnancy Journey
Routine adjustments during pregnancy can put your body in a position to heal and bounce back quicker because you’re starting off with your body in proper balance. Women who seek chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy can continue to enjoy the benefits after delivery as well. Proper alignment can help new moms avoid injuries when bending to lift a baby, holding a baby for long periods, pushing strollers and lifting car seats!
Conclusion
At Live Well Chiropractic, we offer prenatal and postnatal chiropractic care for pregnant women to help you experience a safe and comfortable pregnancy. Pregnancy can be overwhelming with so much changing so quickly. It’s important to educate yourself, to embrace these changes and enjoy every bit of the process.

I had suffer lower back slip disc at my L4 bone for 13 years. Way back, i had went to hospital for MRI scan, refer to bone specialist and even tried TCM but non of them work well. Time and money spend in the past but the aching/pain just cannot resolve hence at one point of time i had already given up the hope for my slip disc and have the mind set to just live with the pain forever. Recently, happen to saw Chiropractic Ads in my facebook so i decided to give it a try. Did some research online and found LiveWell Sengkang so decided to give it a last tried. Dr Siew Wei was my chiropractor. After 2 session with Dr Siew Wei, realize my back was not as ache as before and surprisingly my body movement had improved as previously due to the aching/pain my body movement when straightening my back is like having this one to two sec pain/aching lag time whenever i bend down and up to do thing. Somehow, Chiropractic improve my body movement and daily lifestyle so I decided to sign up for a 20 session with Dr Siew Wei to continue maintaining my back ache.
Overall, i feel the time and money spend is really worth here as I can really see the result here after 2 session with Dr Siew Wei.

I had an ankle surgery 6 months ago and with a scoliosis, it definitely affected my walking during rehabilitation. And I also suffered from severe back pain. with proper exercises, stretching and Chiropractic treatment with Dr. Jessie. I definitely feel a huge improvement on my walking and there’s lesser back pain. Dr. Jessie is a very well versed Chiropractor, she is also very friendly and tends to every patient with different specific treatment. I had chiro treatment done few years back and this is definitely a better clinic! Also I would like to thank the counter staff for always being flexible with my timing.

Made an appt after feeling stiff necks and shoulders. Attended to by Dr Kenney. Recommended to do an x-ray and realised I have cervical neck. Now midway to the treatment and feeling much better. Even the chest tightness I used to have, is also better now (yes, chest tightness or pain can be caused by chiropractic issues). Definitely recommend - most of time, the appt are punctual and treatments are fast.

Dr Kenney is very professional and patient. He will check with you any pain and adjust treatment accordingly. There is no pain for doing chiropractic unlike surgery. Though it will take some times to improve body condition progressively.
