Listen Later

Today, we talk with Dr. Brandie Nemchenko, CEO of Experience Chiropractic (https://experiencechiropracticnow.com/our-service/chiropractic-care/prenatal-chiropractor/), with offices in southeastern Pennsylvania, and author of What You Don’t Expect When You’re Expecting (https://www.whatyoudontexpect.com/). We start with Dr. Brandie telling us the unlikely set of events that led her to specialize in chiropractics in pregnancy and open up Experience Chiropractic. We discuss which question an expecting mother should ask a chiropractor to determine if they will be a good fit. We also talk about the warning signs and red flags to look for to tell if a chiropractor doesn’t actually have experience with pregnancy. Dr. Brandie warns against chiropractors using electrical muscle stimulation on pregnant women. We then discuss the typical issues and pain that women encounter during pregnancy. We then discuss the scenarios and conditions when chiropractics in pregnancy are unsafe. We go on to talk more about where to begin when looking for a chiropractor for you. We talk about what the Webster Technique is and when to use it. We also talk more in depth about other conditions and the treatments for them. We finish by talking about the complimentary, alternative methods that Dr. Brandie refers out to in her office.
