Pregnancy Chiropractic in Portland
Pregnancy is a beautiful season, but the extra weight, shifting ligaments, and hormonal changes can leave your body feeling out of balance. Many expectant parents also notice rising stress in their bodies, but aren’t sure how to address it. At 120 Chiropractic Inc., prenatal chiropractic care is focused on helping your nervous system work clearly, so both you and your baby can thrive. Portland Chiropractor Dr. Henre Andosca has nearly 25 years of experience supporting growing families with gentle, customized care. Our goal is a smoother, more comfortable pregnancy and an easier birth experience.
How Prenatal Chiropractic Supports You and Your Baby
Chiropractic during pregnancy helps your spine and nervous system adapt to rapid change. When your nervous system is calmer and more organized, your body can move, rest, and support your baby’s development more easily. Over the years, Dr. Andosca has seen expectant parents do “dramatically well,” including many who return with each pregnancy because they feel such a difference. Patients often notice benefits such as:
- More comfortable posture and mobility
- Less tension through the lower back, hips, and pelvis
- A calmer nervous system, improved sleep, and overall ease
- Pregnancies and labors that feel smoother and more efficient
Thoughtful Assessments Tailored to Pregnancy
Before recommending how often you should come in, Dr. Andosca completes a careful evaluation with your safety and comfort in mind. This may include orthopedic and chiropractic tests to see how your spine and pelvis are working, along with thermography to measure nerve tension.
Based on our findings, your visits may be more frequent at first—such as two to three times per week—and then be spaced out as your body stabilizes. From the start, you’ll receive clear expectations about how long care may take and when you’re likely to notice changes.
Gentle Techniques with Our Experienced Practitioner
Pregnant bodies need especially mindful care, and Dr. Andosca uses a very gentle, responsive approach. Each adjustment is tailored to your response, so your body is never pushed beyond what it’s ready for.
