Pregnancy and Pediatric Chiropractor in West Omaha

During pregnancy, your body is working what seems like miracles. You’re changing every day as your baby grows. As your center of gravity shifts, hormones relax your pelvis and bones move to get ready for birth, you might experience pain-related problems.

We’ll focus solely on Mom while she is pregnant, addressing her hips, ligaments, muscles, back and pelvis to make sure she can stay comfortable in pregnancy and have successful labor.

The Benefits of Chiropractic During Pregnancy

Research shows that women under chiropractic care require fewer cesarean sections and have lower delivery times. On average, labor times go from nine hours to just six. If your baby isn’t in the right position, Dr. Tereshel is certified in the Webster Technique. This method helps relax pelvic muscles to give baby  the room to turn when the time comes. Webster Technique is a safe means to restore proper pelvic balance and function of the mother and improve her comfort throughout pregnancy in preparation for a safer, easier birth. It is reported that with a breech baby, the results of the adjustment appeared to normalize pelvic neuro-biomechanics and facilitate optimal fetal positioning.

We also work with you after birth to make sure that your body is in the best possible shape and you get the support you need. Chiropractic care can be of great assistance in helping moms reduce or eliminate these common symptoms:

 Sciatica                                  Low back pain 

Hip & Pelvis Tightness         Round ligament pain

Sleeping difficulties              Heart Burn

Neck and shoulder tightness      

Natural Care for Babies and Children

Straight after birth, we can check your newborn for any problems that occurred during delivery. The birth canal is a small space and the neck can be negatively affected by the birthing process. Misshapen and flat heads are also common. If you notice your baby holds their head in one position or likes to nurse on one side, this is a good indication your baby should be seen by Green Chiropractic.

We like to tell our patients that it’s easier to provide care for a healthy child than fix a broken adult. Kids respond quickly to chiropractic since their problems haven’t been present as long. Under our care, you might find your child doesn’t suffer from regular allergies, fight off colds quicker, have less  ear infections, has greater motor function and isn’t as cranky as they usually are. It is important to know, Green Chiropractic does NOT treat any medical condition. Rather, we help the nervous system be free from interference so their body functions better.  Chiropractic care is safe and gentle.

What is Webster’s Techinque

The Webster technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/ SI joint dysfunction. In so doing neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved.                                                                                               

Dr. Larry Webster, founder of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association discovered this adjustment as a safe means to restore proper pelvic balance and function. This specific sacral analysis can be used on all weight bearing individuals to determine S/I joint dysfunction/ sacral subluxation and is therefore applicable for the entire population. The assessment includes heel flexion to buttocks, with restricted flexion indicating the affected SI joint. Correction is made with a diversified, sacral adjustment. It is used on all weight bearing individuals presenting with this biomechanical restriction. Common symptoms include (but are not limited to) low back pain, sciatic neuralgia, and symptoms associated with sacral subluxation and/ or S/I joint dysfunction.
