Reduce Time of Labor with Chiropractic Care - American Medical Association

Women who receive chiropractic care have reduced labor times and less "back labor"

(Press Release) – Sep 21, 2008 – Good news for those of you who have or fear long labors. Not only can chiropractic care ease symptoms during pregnancy, there is research that show it can ease delivery time and pain as well. Research found that women who receive chiropractic care during pregnancy have approximately 6 fewer hours of labor than women who did not receive care. According to a study by Irvin Hendryson, MD "visiting a chiropractor while being pregnant can help the expectent mother deliver the baby with more comfort." That's great news for mom and baby alike!

American Medical Association records released in 1987 during trial in U.S. District Court Northern Illinois Eastern Division, No. 76 C 3777

It is not a common occurence for the AMA to report information that is favorable to chiropractic. If you know someone who is pregnant or if you are pregnant, do yourself or your friend a favor and see a chiropractor for a consultation. Labor does not have to be too laborious.
