Press Release Summary = Dr. David Ginsberg offers insight on how to reduce and prevent back pain during pregnancy with chiropractic care. Women do not have to suffer through uncomfortable back pain if preventative measures are taken.
Press Release Body = Pregnancy greatly increases a woman\'s vulnerability to back problems during and after birth. Did you know that at least half of pregnant women experience back pain during pregnancy? Some studies suggest that these numbers are even higher.
Many women simply accept back pain as an unavoidable trade off in the creation of new life. However, Dr. David Ginsberg, D.C., owner of Ginsberg Chiropractic says that pregnant women do not have to take back pain \"lying down!\" Dr. Ginsberg is an experienced chiropractor in Geneva, IL who aims at increasing women\'s awareness of the relationship between back pain and pregnancy. He said, \"Women who are more educated are more likely to seek care and reduce back pain.\"
Studies have proven that chiropractic care greatly reduces the amount of pain and discomfort throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in 1991 revealed that 84% of patients who received spinal manipulative therapy (chiropractic care) reported a decrease in back pain while pregnant. Another study reported in the book \"Chiropractic Pediatrician\" showed that regular chiropractic adjustments reduced average labor times by an average of 33%.
Dr. Ginsberg said, \"Women who have regular chiropractic treatment and are properly instructed about ways to reduce pain have a much easier, smoother child bearing experience. Also, women who have significant back pain during pregnancy are more likely to experience a longer period of pain in subsequent pregnancies. That\'s why I really stress a preemptive approach, meaning get educated before your body begins to make its maternal changes.\"
Dr. Ginsberg strongly suggests contact with a local chiropractor who can give valuable guidance and care. Some other things that can be done to reduce strain on the back are sleeping on your side, maintaining good posture, eating and exercising properly, using a pregnancy pillow or support belt, and many more.
