Pregnancy changes your body fast — and not always comfortably. If you're dealing with low back pain, hip discomfort, sciatica, or just want your body prepared for the easiest birth possible, prenatal chiropractic care from Dr. Birchann Martin at The Family Den Chiropractic & Wellness can help.
We proudly serve expecting moms throughout Longmont, Firestone, Frederick, Niwot, and the greater Boulder County area with gentle, pregnancy-safe chiropractic adjustments designed specifically for your changing body.
Why Choose a Prenatal Chiropractor in Longmont?
As your baby grows, your center of gravity shifts, your ligaments loosen, and your spine and pelvis adapt to accommodate new life. These changes can lead to:
- Low back and hip pain
- Sciatic nerve pain
- Pelvic misalignment
- Round ligament pain
- Poor posture and balance
- Restricted space for baby to move into an optimal position
Prenatal chiropractic care addresses these issues at the source — not just the symptoms — using gentle, pregnancy-specific techniques that are safe throughout all three trimesters.
The Webster Technique
At The Family Den Chiropractic & Wellness, Dr. Birchann is certified in the Webster Technique, a specialized chiropractic approach used specifically for pregnancy. This technique focuses on:
- Reducing tension in the pelvis and surrounding ligaments
- Supporting proper pelvic alignment
- Helping create optimal conditions for baby to move into a head-down position
- Reducing the likelihood of intervention during labor
Many Longmont moms seek out Webster-certified chiropractors in their third trimester specifically to support a smoother, more comfortable delivery.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy

- Better balance — Improved pelvic alignment supports better posture as your body changes
- Easier labor — A balanced pelvis may help labor progress more smoothly

Is Chiropractic Care Safe During Pregnancy?
Yes. Chiropractic care is widely recognized as a safe, drug-free option for managing pregnancy-related pain and discomfort. Dr. Birchann uses pregnancy-specific tables and techniques that accommodate your growing belly, and every adjustment is modified based on your trimester and comfort level.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I start prenatal chiropractic care? Many moms begin as soon as they experience discomfort, but care can be beneficial at any point during pregnancy — even before symptoms start.
How often should I get adjusted during pregnancy? This varies by patient. Some moms come in weekly, especially in the third trimester, while others visit as needed for symptom relief. We'll build a plan around your needs.
Can chiropractic care help turn a breech baby? The Webster Technique doesn't directly turn a baby, but by reducing pelvic and ligament tension, it may help create more space for baby to reposition on their own.
Is it safe to get adjusted in my third trimester? Yes. We use specialized pregnancy tables and techniques that keep you comfortable and safe throughout every stage of pregnancy.
