Pregnancy Chiropractic in Yonkers
Nurturing Mom and Baby Through Safe, Gentle Chiropractic Care
Pregnancy brings incredible changes to your body, and maintaining proper spinal alignment becomes more crucial than ever for both you and your developing baby. Dr. James Striano understands that everything connected from your brain travels through your nervous system and umbilical cord to your growing child. When your spine is properly aligned, you’re providing the optimal environment for your baby’s development while supporting your own comfort and health throughout pregnancy.
Many expectant mothers are surprised to learn that chiropractic care during pregnancy isn’t just safe—it’s essential for maximizing both nerve supply and blood supply to your developing baby. Proper spinal alignment ensures your baby develops under the best possible guidance and control from your nervous system.

Specialized Care Designed for Pregnancy Comfort
Hudson Valley Chiropractic and Nutrition Office features a specialized pregnancy table that allows you to lie comfortably on your stomach throughout your entire pregnancy. The table’s pelvic and thoracic sections move independently, creating a “floating” space for your growing belly while keeping your pelvis and shoulders properly supported. This innovative design means you can receive the full benefits of chiropractic care without any discomfort or concern for your baby’s safety.
Dr. Striano adjusts pregnant women using the same gentle, effective techniques he uses for all patients—both traditional and non-force methods depending on your comfort level and what your body needs. The treatment approach remains essentially the same because pregnancy doesn’t preclude you from receiving any type of safe, appropriate chiropractic care.
Benefits That Extend Beyond Pain Relief
While many pregnant women seek chiropractic care for lower back pain—the most common pregnancy-related complaint—the benefits extend far beyond discomfort relief. Proper spinal alignment helps minimize toxic effects on your developing baby, supports optimal positioning for easier delivery, and helps maintain the strength and flexibility needed for both the birthing process and recovery afterward.
Regular chiropractic care during pregnancy often results in easier labor and delivery, faster recovery times, and reduced need for medical interventions. Many patients report improved sleep quality, reduced morning sickness, and better overall energy levels throughout their pregnancy journey.

Preparing Your Body for Birth and Beyond
Maintaining strong core muscles and proper spinal alignment throughout pregnancy is crucial preparation for the physical demands of labor and delivery. Dr. Striano emphasizes the importance of keeping your stomach muscles strong and your spine properly aligned so you’re as physically prepared as possible when the time comes to welcome your baby.
Exercise recommendations and nutritional guidance complement your chiropractic care, ensuring you’re eating the proper foods to support both your health and your baby’s development while minimizing any potential toxic effects. This comprehensive approach supports not just a healthy pregnancy, but optimal recovery and energy for caring for your new little one.
Safe Care Throughout Every Trimester
Chiropractic care is beneficial and safe throughout your entire pregnancy, from the early weeks when morning sickness and fatigue may be challenging, through the later months when back pain and positioning become more difficult. Dr. Striano has over 46 years of experience safely caring for pregnant women, understanding the unique needs and concerns that arise during each stage of pregnancy.
Whether you’re experiencing your first pregnancy or you’re a seasoned mom, each pregnancy brings its own challenges and changes to your body. Our individualized approach ensures your care adapts to your specific needs as your body and baby continue to grow and change.
Supporting Healthy Development from the Start
The communication pathway between your brain and your developing baby is crucial for proper growth and development. Any interference in this vital connection can impact your baby’s health potential. By maintaining clear nerve pathways through gentle spinal correction, you’re giving your baby the best possible start in life while supporting your own health and comfort.
