Creating & Supporting a Healthier, More Comfortable Pregnancy
Pregnancy brings incredible changes — but with them often come aches, pains, and questions about what’s “normal'“. From low back pain to pelvic pressure or even wrist discomfort (that dreaded “pregnancy carpal tunnel”, your musculoskeletal system (muscles, joints, ligaments, and fascia) is working overtime to adapt to your growing baby and changing body.
This is where care during pregnancy — through physical therapy, chiropractic care, and intentional movement — can make all the difference.
Why Your Musculoskeletal System Matters During Pregnancy
As your belly grows, your posture, center of gravity, and joint mobility all shift. These changes can:
Increase strain on the low back and pelvis
Create imbalances that make movement less efficient
Contribute to pain, sciatica, or even incontinence
When these issues are addressed early, they’re much easier to manage — and can improve your comfort all the way to delivery day. This will also reduce the likelihood they linger in postpartum when you have much more important things to worry about!
How Musculoskeletal Care Helps
At Key to Change Wellness, our pregnancy-focused care combines gentle adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and exercise prescription to help your body adapt more smoothly. Benefits often include:

Preparing for Birth with Confidence
We believe every expecting mom deserves to feel strong, informed, and confident in her body. That’s why we created the Prep for Birth Bundle — a customizable program designed to help you move well, understand your body, and prepare for delivery with less pain and more control.
Bottom line:
Musculoskeletal care isn’t just about easing discomfort — it’s about empowering you through every stage of pregnancy.
