Pregnancy Chiropractic in Morristown
Pregnancy changes the way your body moves, feels, and rests. As your baby grows, you may notice new aches, stiffness, or pressure—especially in your lower back, hips, and pelvis. At May Family Chiropractic in Morristown, gentle pregnancy chiropractic care is designed to help you stay as comfortable and active as possible through every stage.
How Pregnancy Chiropractic May Help
During pregnancy, the natural changes in weight, hormones, and posture can place extra stress on the spine, joints, and muscles. This may lead to pain and tension that make it harder to move, sleep, or enjoy daily life.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy may help with:
- Lower back pain, hip pain, pelvic discomfort, and stiffness
- Sciatica-type leg discomfort related to pressure on spinal nerves
- Neck and shoulder tension from posture changes
- Difficulty getting comfortable when sitting, standing, or sleeping
- General joint soreness from carrying extra weight
By gently improving alignment and motion in the spine and pelvis, chiropractic care can ease stress on joints and supporting muscles. Many pregnant patients report better comfort, smoother movement, and more ease with daily tasks.
What to Expect at Your Visit
From the moment you arrive at May Family Chiropractic, our team wants you to feel welcome, heard, and relaxed. Your visit will always start with a conversation about how you are feeling and what you hope to gain from care.

- A review of your health history and current stage of pregnancy
- A focused exam to check posture, movement, and areas of tension
- A clear, simple explanation of what we find and how we can help

If chiropractic care is appropriate, the doctor will use gentle, pregnancy-friendly techniques.

Many expecting patient are surprised by how comfortable and relaxing the visit feels.

Every pregnancy is different, and your care should be too. At May Family Chiropractic, your chiropractor will:
- Listen carefully to your concerns
- Check how your body is adapting week by week

Your visit may also include simple stretches, posture tips, and ideas to make everyday tasks—like getting in and out of bed or the car—easier on your body. If you have questions at any time, you are encouraged to ask. You stay in control of your care, and nothing is rushed.
Safety of Care During Pregnancy
Safety is always the first priority at May Family Chiropractic. Our chiropractors use techniques that are appropriate for pregnancy and avoid any pressure on the abdomen.
Chiropractic care is drug-free and non-surgical. Many providers consider it a natural option for pregnant patient seeking relief from joint and muscle discomfort. If needed, we are happy to communicate with your other providers so your care stays coordinated and informed.
If you have a high-risk pregnancy or special medical concerns, the doctor will review your situation carefully and may recommend you speak with your obstetric provider before starting or continuing chiropractic care.
