Chiropractic

Chiropractic care is an invaluable resource for expectant moms. As we celebrate our mothers this month, it is important to know that chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy can help alleviate lower back pain, pelvic discomfort, and generalized aches and pains. This helps to enhance overall comfort during pregnancy and can also support the body’s changing physiology, potentially leading to smoother labor and delivery. If you are interested in chiropractic care during your pregnancy and following delivery, reach out to our staff and schedule your appointment today! Be Well!

Acupuncture

Acupuncture can help fertility and may assist couples who are struggling to conceive. Needling specific acupuncture points helps to improve blood flow to reproductive organs, balance hormones, and regulate the menstrual cycle creating an optimal environment for conception. Additionally, acupuncture can reduce stress and anxiety, a common barrier to conception. Several health insurance companies offer some coverage for acupuncture provided in a chiropractic office, call our office and try acupuncture today!

Pilates Rehab Exercise 

Pilates reformer exercise provides a multitude of benefits for pregnant women. It offers a safe and effective way to stay active and maintain strength during pregnancy. These low-impact, controlled movements allow for safe, tailored exercises that focus on core stability, pelvic floor strength, and proper alignment, all essential for supporting the growth of the baby and decreasing discomfort for mom. Many health insurance companies will cover Pilates rehab reformer exercise in our office as a part of a patient’s treatment plan. Reach out to one of our qualified instructors or ask our front desk staff how you can get started!

BalancePoint Nutrtition, PA.

Taking prenatal vitamins during pregnancy is important for both mom and baby. These supplements are formulated to provide crucial nutrients that may be lacking in mom’s diet such as folic acid, iron, calcium and DHA. Folic acid is necessary as it prevents neural tube defects in the baby’s brain and spine, where iron supports increased blood volume and prevents anemia. Calcium contributes to the development of bones and teeth, ensuring proper growth. DHA is vital for the development of the baby’s brain and eyes. If you are considering becoming pregnant or currently expecting, Dr. Rister can help you select a high-quality prenatal supplement that is appropriate for you.
