What Causes Pubic Pain During Pregnancy?

The pubic bone is located at the bottom part of your hips and will become flexible during pregnancy to give the baby more room during delivery. In the months before giving birth, the loosening of these ligaments and the extra movement it allows can cause pubic pain for expecting mothers. The bone is glued together by cartilage and our Chiropractors can help you figure out what you may be doing in your life positionally to make it better or worse.


The baby and pregnancy in general can also create stiffness and instability around the pubis, resulting in inflammation. The additional weight from your baby can make the bodily changes more and more uncomfortable, as well as the position of the baby Simple and gentle adjustments can not only relieve stress, tension, pain and inflammation but can also get baby into a better position for birth and ease on the mothers body. Many women will need relief of some sort to make their pregnancies more manageable and relaxing.

How Does a Chiropractic Adjustment Help Relieve Pubic Pain?

Thankfully, with the help of prenatal chiropractic adjustments, women can find true comfort from pubic pain naturally. Through careful maneuvers, one of our chiropractors can realign your spine, hips, and pubic bones into their normal position, which will reduce pain, inflammation and discomfort.
