Research finds positive outcomes in pregnancy study

An exploratory practice-based research study just published in the Journal of Pediatric, Maternal & Family Health suggests that pregnant women with abnormal fetal positions may derive benefits from chiropractic care.
The study published by investigators, Dr. Joel Alcantara, et. al., found a relationship between chiropractic care and improvements in abnormal fetal pregnancies. They considered sociodemographic information, previous prenatal care and abnormal fetal positioning prior to care. According to the article, 70% of the subjects with abnormal fetal pregnancies reported a return to the vertex position.
Ordinary obstetricians generally are untrained about the benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy and as a result women may need to become their own advocates regarding this valuable information.
