How Chiropractor Can Help Relieve Groin Pain during Pregnancy?

Pregnancy can affect the nerves in your spine, causing strain that contributes to stiffness and groin pain. Discomfort can range from mild pressure to severe, intolerable pain, and may be intermittent or persistent.
These symptoms are caused by the changes your body undergoes to accommodate the growing baby. Up to 80% of women experience groin pain at some point during pregnancy, especially in the last trimester.
Although common, you do not have to live with groin pain during your pregnancy journey. Early intervention and proper care can make a significant difference.
The painful area is usually located in the groin, around the pubic symphysis, where the two sides of the pelvic bones join in the front. Other common areas of discomfort include:
  • Sacroiliac joint (where the sacrum meets the ilium)
  • Lower lumbar spine
  • Sacrum
In addition to severe groin and pelvic pain, many affected pregnant women tend to “waddle” when they walk. The area is often very tender, especially when pressed.

Your pregnancy chiropractor uses gentle techniques to ease pelvic and groin pain and is trained to work with pregnant mums in Singapore.

Back Pain during Pregnancy

Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy‑Related Back Pain

Pregnancy is one of the main causes of back pain in women. This is because your growing uterus shifts the center of gravity, putting more stress and strain on your back.
50% – 80% of women will experience back pain during pregnancy.
The following video illustrates how pregnancy can affect the nerves in your spine. It also shows how this can not only cause back pain, but pelvic and buttock pain as well.
Scientific literature also shows that chiropractic for pregnancy is effective in the treatment of lower back pain.

Additionally, Chiropractic for pregnancy has been shown to have up to a 92.9% improvement rate for nausea, and up to a 95.9% improvement rate for vomiting. It is accomplished by adjusting the spine which optimizes the transmission of nerve signals to the organs, making them run more smoothly and optimally.

Our pregnancy chiropractor in Singapore uses specific, gentle adjustments and soft tissue work to relieve strain on your spine and pelvis.

Chiropractic Care and Breech Babies

Creating Space for Your Baby to Turn

By around week 34, 90% of babies should typically be in the correct head-down position. Chiropractic has been shown to help encourage your baby to turn.

Many mums visit our pregnancy chiropractor in Singapore to support optimal pelvic alignment when their baby is in a breech position.

It is important to note that chiropractors do not turn breech babies. Rather, they create a more functional and optimal environment within the mother’s body, which facilitates the baby to turn.
By working on all the important muscles and ligaments associated with your pregnancy, Dr. Luke helps your baby have more room to turn into the correct head-down position.
In addition, this treatment alleviates groin pain during pregnancy.

Is chiropractic safe during pregnancy?

Understandably, the first thing most mums-to-be ask is whether chiropractic care is safe in pregnancy. When provided by a trained practitioner using gentle, pregnancy-appropriate techniques, prenatal chiropractic care is widely considered a safe, drug-free option for managing pregnancy-related aches and pains.

We take particular care to keep you and your baby comfortable and safe:

  • Gentle, low-force techniques adapted for pregnancy — never forceful.
  • Pregnancy pillows and adapted positioning so you can lie comfortably as your bump grows.
  • Care tailored to your trimester and how your body is changing.
  • Coordination with your maternity team — we work alongside your doctor or midwife and refer promptly if anything needs medical review.

If you have a higher-risk pregnancy or any complications, we'll always ask you to check with your obstetrician first — your safety comes first.
