Breeched Baby Turned and Pregnancy Pains Reduced with Chiropractic Care

I originally started chiropractic care because I was having some sharp lower back pain, heaBreech Pregnancy Helped with Chiropractic in Marietta GAdaches, and numbness in my legs due to pregnancy.  I am a PreK teacher and these problems were making it difficult to keep up with my students on a daily basis.

In addition to my original pregnancy problems, my midwife informed me that my baby had not yet turned, was in the breech position, at 32 weeks of pregnancy.  She knew I was seeing Dr. Braile, so she told me to ask him about the Webster’s technique.  I did just that at my next visit.  Dr. Braile was very comfortable talking me through each adjustment. 

Later that night I noticed my baby’s increased movements.  I had one more visit with Dr. Braile before visiting my midwife again.  I was pleased to find out that after only two visits with Dr. Braile performing the Webster’s technique, my baby had turned to the correct position (head down). 

As pleased as I am with my baby turning, I am equally pleased that the sharp pain in my lower back is gone, my headaches are reduced, and the numbness in my leg is minor, even at 36 weeks.  In my last pregnancy the numbness was a chronic pain during the entire pregnancy.

Due to my success here at Braile Chiropractic, I have already passed on Dr. Braile’s name to my midwife in the event that any other pregnant woman was looking for chiropractic care.
