Breath of Life Pregnancy and Pediatric Chiropractic

11/19/2025

Chiropractic can do so much more during pregnancy than eliminate unnecessary pain.
It also has a deep and lasting impact on a mother’s emotional well-being.

When the spine is aligned and the nervous system is clear, the body communicates better, adapts better, and feels better. This creates space for calmer moods, improved regulation, and a greater sense of confidence throughout pregnancy.

A regulated nervous system supports not only physical health—but emotional resilience, connection, and peace. ✨

Based on a Duke University study published in Science Advances in 2019, growing a baby is energetically comparable to or more demanding than running a marathon every day for 9 months. The study found that pregnancy pushes the human body to its metabolic limits over a long duration, in a way that is similar to elite endurance events but sustained for much longer.

Energy costs during pregnancy:

Pregnancy is an extreme feat of endurance because the body works constantly to grow a new human, even at rest.

📑Total calories: Pregnancy requires an additional 50,000 dietary calories over nine months. The mother’s body provides 96% of this energy.

📑Cardiovascular demand: To support the growing baby, a woman’s blood volume can increase by 30 to 50 percent, and her heart rate increases by 10 to 15 beats per minute.

📑Metabolic demands: The body’s resting energy use can rise by up to 30%, meaning it works much harder even when stationary.

While a marathon is a discrete event, pregnancy is a continuous process of biological transformation. The comparison highlights the total metabolic output over the long term. A woman’s heart, lungs, and metabolism work overtime every day for nine months, making pregnancy one of the most intense and sustained physical challenges a human body can undergo.

Chiropractic care isn’t about treating disease; it’s about supporting your child’s natural ability to heal, grow, and thrive.

When the spine is misaligned, it can create stress in the nervous system, disrupting communication between the brain and body. This lowers resilience and makes it harder for kids to adapt to everyday challenges.

From birth onward, physical, emotional, and even chemical stress can affect spinal alignment—think falls, sports, posture, or simply the stress of growing up. Over time, these imbalances may contribute to lowered immunity, restless sleep, or recurring colds.

Gentle pediatric chiropractic adjustments help remove that interference, restoring balance so the nervous system can work as it’s designed to. When the body is in harmony:
✨ Immune function improves
✨ Sleep becomes more restful
✨ Energy and adaptability return
✨ Kids thrive

Chiropractic care is a safe, natural way to support optimal growth and lifelong wellness. 💜

From the moment your baby is born, you do everything you can to help them grow strong and healthy. But did you know your child’s spine plays a vital role in their overall development and well-being?

Chiropractic care helps support your child’s nervous system, the body’s communication network, so they can thrive as they grow. Gentle, safe adjustments can help your little one reach milestones, recover from falls, and maintain optimal health at every stage.

Your family’s emotional well-being directly contributes to your physical well-being.
When we care for the mind, nurture relationships, and reduce stress, the body responds in kind—healing, balancing, and thriving. 🌿
