Pregnancy brings incredible changes to your body, but it can also place added stress on your spine, hips, pelvis, and surrounding muscles. As your baby grows, changes in posture, weight distribution, and hormones can contribute to lower back pain, pelvic discomfort, sciatica, and joint stiffness.

Common causes include:
- Weight gain

These changes often lead to discomfort that affects walking, sleeping, sitting, and daily activities.

Ja'Quaya Mosley 10/09/2026My son and I started coming here about a month and a half ago after being rear ended and sustaining a whiplash injury. The communication is so smooth, from getting in for your initial appointment to arranging all of those to come. Dr. Rockwood is amazing at listening, explaining things and tailoring your treatment to fit your needs. This is not only my 1st ever chiropractic experience but my son’s as well (he’s 5) and Dr. Rockwood has done amazing with us both! Very satisfied with our treatment and the environment all around here 🙂read moreread lessAranne Helton 10/07/2026What a great doctor! He asked all of the questions he needed to and got to know me while also. He’s very respectful, nice, and does a great job. I actually feel like I have a neck again haha I’m so thankful I stopped putting it off and made an appointment. I just left 30 mins ago and my body feels so incredibly relaxed. I haven’t felt this relaxed in probably over a year. My body was so tense and stiff when I went in & I didn’t think I would notice a difference the first time, but I absolutely did. I feel 10xs better than before! Thank you so much! I would recommend Dr. Brad a 10/10.read moreread less- Michael Russell 10/06/2026AWWWEEE YES!!

Mykayla latronica 9/24/2026I’ve had such a great experience here! I originally went in because I was having some sciatic nerve pain, and after just one adjustment, I felt so much better. Every time I go in, he is always so helpful and really takes the time to make sure you’re feeling better before you leave. The girls at the front desk are also great! They’re always so friendly and helpful!read moreread less
