Episode 62 - Chiropractic Care for Pregnancy, Postpartum and Our Babies with Chiropractor Dr Samantha Sims

Pregnancy and postpartum bring massive physical and emotional changes and often, new discomforts and unanswered questions. Getting the proper support for yourself and your baby during this time is so vital. 

One support that many moms seek out is chiropractic care. 

In this episode, I am joined by Chiropractor Dr Samantha Sims who specializing in prenatal, postpartum, and paediatric care. We explore how chiropractic care can be a powerful, holistic support throughout the motherhood journey, not just for moms, but for babies and children too.

Dr Samantha and I chat about: 

• What chiropractic care actually is (and what it’s not)
• Common prenatal issues like back pain, pelvic discomfort, and round ligament pain, and how chiropractic care can help
• How adjustments may support labour prep and ease the delivery process
• Postpartum challenges, including c-section scar tension, pelvic floor issues, and diastasis recti
• Safe and gentle chiropractic care for babies and how it can support common newborn concerns 
• When and how to begin postpartum or pediatric chiropractic care

Dr Samantha Sims is a chiropractor and acupuncture provider based in the City of Kawartha Lakes. A family-focused practitioner, Dr Samantha is passionate about supporting patients through every stage of life, with a special focus on prenatal, postpartum, and pediatric care.
