Pregnancy brain is real, and we got you, Momma!! Pregnancy is a time when your nervous system needs extra support for so many reasons!! It's the reason we always get a fresh set of scans when we find out the exciting news, so we can support you best through so many changes happening all at once!! Let's talk about why 👇
Along with the extra nervous system support, check out the article at the link in our bio to learn more about the science behind pregnancy brain and how to use chiropractic to support you through it!
🤰 Research has shown these cognitive changes aren’t just subjective experiences—they correspond to actual structural and functional alterations in the brain
🤰 A study followed women through pregnancy and found significant reductions in gray matter volume that persisted for at least two years postpartum.
🤰 Pregnancy triggers changes in the brain’s functional network, the neural circuit that’s active when our minds are at rest.
🤰 A stressed out mom during pregnancy leads to moms stuck in sympathetic dominance—essentially living with the “gas pedal” pressed down while your “brake pedal” becomes less responsive...and making pregnancy brain even worse.
Many women enter pregnancy with their nervous systems already needing some TLC due to modern life stressors. Which is another reason we recommend extra support during this special time!! We are so excited to work together to make this the pregnancy of your dreams!!
