Prenatal Chiropractor in Jersey City, NJ

Many women wonder, “Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?” The answer is absolutely yes. We use modified, low-force techniques designed exclusively for pregnant bodies.

• Specialized Equipment: Our office features specially designed chiropractic tables with a “dropaway” abdominal piece, allowing you to comfortably and safely lie face-down during your treatment, no matter what trimester you are in.

• Pelvic Alignment: We focus on balancing the pelvis and reducing tension in the ligaments and muscles supporting the uterus. Proper pelvic alignment can help create optimal space for your baby to grow and get into the best position for delivery.

Our integrative approach helps expecting mothers find natural relief from common pregnancy-related conditions without the use of medication:

• Lower Back & Hip Pain: Relieving the pressure caused by a shifting center of gravity.
• Sciatica & Nerve Pain: Alleviating sharp, shooting pain down the legs caused by the baby resting on the sciatic nerve.
• Round Ligament Pain: Easing the sharp discomfort in the lower belly or groin as your uterus expands.
• Neck & Upper Back Tension: Correcting postural compensation from carrying extra weight.

Dr. David Sylvester‘s care services don’t stop after delivery. Childbirth takes an enormous toll on a woman’s biomechanics. Furthermore, the repetitive motions of motherhood—carrying an infant car seat, nursing, and bending over a crib—often lead to repetitive stress injuries. We help new mothers restore pelvic alignment, strengthen their core, and relieve the neck and shoulder pain associated with nursing and carrying a newborn.

You can begin chiropractic care at any stage of your pregnancy. Some women come in during their first trimester to stay ahead of postural changes, while others seek us out in their second or third trimesters when back pain or sciatica begins to flare up.

Yes. By realigning the spine and pelvis, we remove interference from the nervous system and relieve the mechanical stress placed on your lower back joints by the extra weight of pregnancy.

No. Chiropractic care does not induce labor. Our goal is to balance your musculoskeletal system so your body is as comfortable, strong, and prepared for the birthing process as possible.
