Pregnancy takes a toll on women’s spines and bodies. Dr. Jeanne Ohm, Executive Director of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) and one of the co-authors of a case study published in the February 2009 issue of the Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health, stated, "Research is revealing that chiropractic care is extremely beneficial before, during and after the birth process, helping the mother enjoy a healthier pregnancy, a more normal delivery and giving the child a better start in life. Study after study is showing that a chiropractor is an indispensable part of the birthing team." This case study documented the case of a woman in the midst of a difficult birth receiving help with chiropractic.
Receiving chiropractic care while pregnant can relieve a variety of aches and pains often caused by an expanding abdomen, uneven weight distribution, and new pressure points on the spine. Dr. Mancuso helps create a more comfortable pregnancy and even an easier birth. She is also well versed in assisting with realigning breach baby positions.
