Lumbosacral pain

The lumbosacral joint is where the low back connects with the tailbone and is a common location for pain during pregnancy. This is due to the change in weight distribution as the baby grows and the response of the muscles to support and stabilize your changing body. Though this spinal region will be under constant strain throughout the duration of the pregnancy, symptoms can be well managed with chiropractic care.

To ensure all contributors to low back pain are identified and addressed with targeted treatment, a thorough history and examination is performed: considerations include disc sprains, deep gluteal syndrome, hypermobility, and dysfunctional movement patterns of the leg with myofibrosis.
