Pregnancy chiro or pelvic-floor physio?

If your main concern is pelvic floor strength, continence, birth preparation, or post-birth pelvic floor recovery, a pelvic-floor physiotherapist is usually the right place to start. If your concern is joint, ligament, or structural discomfort that is affecting how you walk, roll, sleep, climb stairs, or get in and out of a car, a pregnancy-trained chiropractor may be a reasonable place to ask for an assessment. For many pregnant patients, both professions can be part of the conversation.
