Hanes Total Health Care: Pregnancy & Chiropractic

Published: May 24, 2017, 12:49 p.m.

Dr. Abby Palmer knows firsthand about pregnancy and chiropractic care. At the time of her studio visit, she was 36 weeks pregnant herself. Palmer has been a patient of chiropractic since she was 8 years old and provides care for patients as young as two weeks old. Palmer says the birthing process places about 60 pounds of pressure on a baby's spine, which leads to the need for a spinal adjustment, and she adds it's completely safe. Pregnant mom's can use adjustments, too thanks to pressure applied to the spine from carrying a baby. Call 740-772-5957 for more details.
