What does the research say about Pregnancy, Back Pain and Chiro
The 12 studies included in this review (see link below) were carried out among pregnant women, nurse-midwives and chiropractors about the use of chiropractic care during pregnancy and labour.
The studies that were conducted among pregnant women indicated that chiropractic care was a good solution for pregnant patients with lower back pain.
One of the studies conducted by Murphy et al (2009) on pregnant women with lower back pain reported that 73% of the patients reported their improvement as either ‘excellent’ or ‘good’ and 82% patients had experienced clinically significant improvement in pain. Similarly, Lisi (2006) reported that 94% of women reported clinical improvement from lower back pain and no adverse effects were reported in any of the cases.
