5 Reasons To See A Chiropractor During Pregnancy

1/30/2019

0 Comments

 
Written by: Dr. Aliya Visram, Chiropractor at Yoga Mamas
Picture
Whether this is your first or your fourth pregnancy, it is important that you take time to appreciate and take care of the changes your body is going through while it prepares for the baby.  The chiropractors at Yoga Mamas are specially trained in women's health and in particular, prenatal and postnatal care. 

Here's why you should see a Chiropractic Care Doctor:
​
1. Aligning the pelvis and lumbar spine allows for optimal baby positioning and growth.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy is not only beneficial to Mamas, but also helps with the positioning and growth of the baby. 

2. Shorter labour and delivery times after pelvis and spine are in correct alignment.
By making the proper adjustments, those who have undergone Chiropractic care during their pregnancy have experienced shorter labour and delivery times. 

3. Increases the ease in which the body adapts to the natural changes related to pregnancy. 

Beyond back and pelvic pain, Chiropractic care assesses the entire body as a whole and creates alignment throughout the body to help ease the transition to pregnancy.

4. Reported greater ease and comfort during birthing, reduced need for pain relief medication and medical intervention (forceps, vacuum) during childbirth.
Chiropractic care helps to maintain spinal and pelvic alignment which may help to reduce labour and delivery times as well as decrease the need for medical interventions.
​
5. It helps to alleviate back and pelvic discomfort and pain. 
These spots can become particularly tender during pregnancy. Chiropractic treatment  can help relieve areas of discomfort.

FREE POSTPARTUM TEA: EXPLORING
EMOTIONS SURROUNDING MOTHERHOOD

FRI FEB 15TH 2:30PM - 3:30PM
Join us for tea and guided conversation about motherhood with Danielle Hulan (MSW, RSW).

This event is for you if you are experiencing some or all of the following:
  • Missing your old self and life, and feeling guilty about it
  • The presence of feelings or experiences that are not what you expected
  • Challenges in your relationships with family members
  • Feeling like you aren’t ‘allowed’ to have some of the feelings that you have
  • Feeling like talking to your partner or family about this would make you feel like a burden, embarrassed, or a ‘bad mother’
  • Motherhood is more than feelings of love and blissful connection. If you have found that there hasn’t been space for some of the other (harder!) experiences of motherhood, we welcome you to come, sit, and find comfort in this shared experience.
​
You will leave 
  • Knowing you are not alone 
  • Having greater clarity around your own experience
  • Feeling heard and acknowledged
  • Feeling more compassion for your motherhood journey
  • With a better understanding of how to process and deal with these feelings

EMOTIONS SURROUNDING YOUR PREGNANCY

SAT FEB 23RD 11:15AM - 12:15PM
Come join us for tea and guided conversation with Danielle Hulan (MSW, RSW) on how mamas-to-be can move through the emotional and mental hills of pregnancy.

  • Feeling guilty that you aren’t as excited as you feel you should be
  • Feeling sad or anxious 
  • Feeling disconnected from your partner or loved ones
  • Looking for healthy ways to process these emotions
​

Top Baby Names of 2018

1/28/2019

Submitted by you, Yoga Mamas' Community
Picture
Ahhh baby names ♡ Thousands and thousands to choose from and so many places to draw inspiration from as well. 

When we heard that Jamie (our founder) was going to have a babe of her own, we couldn't help but wonder what she'd name her little one. Which got us thinking about you, our community and your little bundles of joy. We thought we'd put together a little survey showing us the top baby names of 2018 from mamas in our studio.

Can you help us? 
If you had a baby in 2018, what did you name them? Share your baby's name in the form below.

A Note About yoga Mamas' Cancellation Polices

Please note that we do not offer refunds. Each event/course/training/wellness appt has it's own specific cancellation policy which is listed on each registration page. Please take the time to read these in full prior to registering.  Each event/appointment that we run is in partnership with a practitioner who is focusing their independent career in pre and postnatal health. This is their beautiful livelihood. This is why we have these policies in place. Thank you very much for your understanding. Jamie Kalynuik, Founder of Yoga Mamas
