pregnancy care

For many pregnant women, aches and pains in the lower back and hips are part of the experience as the body is changing and growing. We are here to give you some relief and ensure pelvic alignment for your growing baby! 

To adjust pregnant women, the chiropractors at Rise use adjusting pillows to accommodate growing bellies. The chiropractors will show you effective stretches and lifestyle tips for relieving tension and discomfort. 

Dr. Vanessa and Dr. Lori are trained in the Webster Technique for the Pregnant Population. The Webster Technique is a gentle yet specific treatment technique designed specifically for pregnant patients to help ease the symptoms of an unbalanced pelvis. The goal of treatment is to reduce the tension in the lower back, hips and pelvis and improve alignment.

Prenatal & Postnatal Massage Therapy

Chiropractic care isn't the only way we support you through pregnancy and beyond — Kevin and Ron, our Registered Massage Therapists, both offer specialized prenatal and postnatal massage to help ease the physical demands of pregnancy and early motherhood.

Prenatal massage is adapted specifically for pregnancy, using safe positioning and techniques to relieve common discomforts like low back pain, hip tension, and swelling, while supporting relaxation for both you and your baby. Postnatal massage helps ease the physical toll of labour and the new postural strain that comes with feeding, carrying, and caring for your newborn — supporting recovery during those early, demanding weeks of motherhood.
