Pregnancy & Postnatal Chiropractic Care

Gentle, tailored chiropractic support for mothers throughout pregnancy and the postnatal period.

Pregnancy and the postnatal period bring significant physical and hormonal changes that can place considerable strain on the body. Our gentle, tailored care supports mothers through every stage of this journey, helping to improve comfort, mobility, posture, and overall wellbeing before and after birth.

Dr Caprice Webb holds advanced postgraduate training in pregnancy, perinatal care, fertility support, and postpartum care, and is Webster Certified, enabling her to provide specialised chiropractic care for pregnant women and growing families.

Pregnancy & Postnatal Chiropractic Care at Dunn Bay Chiropractic Dunsborough

Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy

As the body undergoes significant physical changes throughout pregnancy, including postural shifts, increased joint laxity, and changes in the centre of gravity, many women experience musculoskeletal discomfort, particularly in the lower back, pelvis, hips, and upper back.

Chiropractic care during pregnancy may help improve pelvic balance and alignment, reduce musculoskeletal discomfort, support optimal fetal positioning, and improve overall comfort and mobility throughout each trimester. All care is gentle, safe, and tailored specifically to the pregnant body.

Dr Webb uses the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and adjustment, which aims to reduce sacral and pelvic dysfunction and support optimal alignment throughout pregnancy.

Postnatal & Postpartum Care

The postnatal period presents its own physical demands. The physical exertion of labour and birth, hormonal changes, breastfeeding postures, carrying and lifting, and the physical demands of caring for a newborn can all contribute to musculoskeletal strain.

Postnatal chiropractic care can help support pelvic floor recovery, address postural strain from feeding and baby care, restore normal spinal and pelvic function, and support the body's overall recovery following birth. Dr Webb has a particular interest in supporting mothers through the postpartum period and works collaboratively with other maternity health providers where appropriate.

Fertility & Preconception Support

Dr Caprice also offers care for women in the preconception and fertility preparation phase. While chiropractic care is not a fertility treatment, optimising spinal and nervous system function, reducing physical tension, and supporting overall wellbeing may complement a broader fertility and preconception health plan.

If you are planning a pregnancy or navigating fertility support, Dr Webb is happy to discuss how chiropractic care may fit into your overall health journey.
