Nervous About Getting Adjusted While Pregnant? Here's What It Actually Looks Like


Dr. Saylor, Dr. Zach, and Dr. John

A clear, honest look at what prenatal chiropractic visits at Van Every look like. From first scan to first adjustment.

If you've been curious about prenatal chiropractic but nervous about what it actually involves, you're not alone. Most people picture cracking, twisting, and force. If you're pregnant, that image is enough to stop you before you start. We get it.

What You'll Learn

A quick look at what is inside your guide.

1

Fear of Force or Cracking During Pregnancy

The image of cracking and twisting is the most common barrier to prenatal chiropractic, and it's based on a misconception. TTC and KST use fingertip-level pressure with no cracking or high-velocity manipulation.

2

Not Sure If It's Safe in Your Trimester

Prenatal chiropractic is safe throughout all three trimesters when performed by someone trained in pregnancy-specific techniques. We adapt our approach for wherever you are in your pregnancy, it's never too early or too late.

3

Unsure If It Can Actually Help

Many moms come in skeptical and leave with objective scan data showing what's happening in their nervous system, which gives them a concrete understanding of why they're feeling what they're feeling and how care is addressing it.

4

Had a Bad Experience Elsewhere

Some moms have received chiropractic care that wasn't adapted for pregnancy, forceful adjustments in uncomfortable positions. What we do is fundamentally different, and we're happy to walk you through exactly what to expect before you commit.

Not Sure If You Need It

If your pregnancy has been physically uncomfortable, if you're carrying stress you can't seem to release, if sleep is poor, if you're anxious, these are all signs your nervous system is under load that can be supported.

"The adjustments we use during pregnancy are gentle, precise, and low-force by design. TTC and KST are not high-velocity techniques. The contact is light, your nervous system does the work of responding. We never use positions that don't accommodate your pregnancy."

What we do at Van Every looks nothing like that. We use TTC (Talsky Tonal Chiropractic) and KST (Koren Specific Technique), both inherently gentle, low-force approaches. There is no cracking, no twisting, no high-velocity manipulation of any kind. The adjustment is a precise, light contact that gives your nervous system information. Your body reads it and begins to release the tension it's been holding. Your body does the work.
