Prenatal Chiropractic Adjustment in

Gastonia, NC

Supporting Mothers Through Every Stage of Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a remarkable journey — but it can also bring physical changes and discomfort that affect your posture, balance, and mobility.


At Southeast Family Chiropractic, we offer safe, gentle prenatal chiropractic adjustments designed to ease pain, promote comfort, and help your body adapt as it prepares for birth.


Our chiropractors in Gastonia, NC, are trained and certified in the Webster Technique, a specialized chiropractic approach created specifically for pregnant women. This technique focuses on balancing the pelvis, reducing stress on the spine, and supporting optimal fetal positioning — naturally and safely.

How Pregnancy Affects the Body

Throughout pregnancy, your body undergoes incredible changes to support your growing baby. Hormonal shifts loosen ligaments, while extra weight and shifting posture add pressure to the spine, pelvis, and joints.

These changes can lead to:

Lower back and hip pain

Pelvic and sciatic discomfort

Round ligament or groin pain

Headaches or tension in the neck and shoulders

Poor sleep or increased fatigue

Chiropractic care helps realign the spine and pelvis, relieving pressure and improving nerve communication. This not only eases discomfort but can also enhance your body’s overall balance and well-being during pregnancy.

Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Adjustments

Prenatal chiropractic care provides a wide range of benefits for both mother and baby.

Key Benefits Include:

Reduced lower back, hip, and pelvic pain

Improved posture and balance

Decreased tension in ligaments and muscles

Enhanced nervous system function

Reduced stress and better sleep quality

Support for optimal baby positioning

By maintaining proper alignment, chiropractic care helps the body adapt to pregnancy’s physical demands and prepares for a smoother delivery.

Webster Technique: Gentle, Certified Care

At Southeast Family Chiropractic, our chiropractors use the Webster Technique, a specific and certified method focused on the alignment of the pelvis and sacrum.

During your session, you’ll lie comfortably on a supportive pregnancy pillow designed with a cut-out for your belly. Your chiropractor will gently assess and correct pelvic misalignments, release soft tissue tension, and restore balance throughout the lower back and abdomen.

This technique:

Relieves pressure on the uterus and supporting ligaments

Promotes pelvic alignment for easier labor

Encourages proper baby positioning (head-down, posterior/anterior balance)

Enhances comfort throughout pregnancy

Many expecting mothers report easier movement, less pain, and a greater sense of calm following each adjustment.

Holistic Support for Your Pregnancy Journey

In addition to prenatal adjustments, we may recommend supportive therapies such as gentle soft tissue therapy, stretching techniques, or massage therapy to relieve muscle tension and improve overall well-being.

Our goal is to help you enjoy this special time in your life with comfort, confidence, and balance.
