Prenatal Care

Pregnancy is a time of incredible change — physically, emotionally, and energetically. At OMA, our prenatal care services are designed to support you through every stage of this journey. From chiropractic and acupuncture to naturopathic care, massage therapy, and movement-based approaches like the Body Ready Method®, our team works collaboratively to help you feel strong, balanced, and comfortable. Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, preparing for birth, or simply looking to nurture your body and baby, we’re here to help you move through pregnancy with greater ease and confidence.

  • Pregnancy brings incredible changes to your body — along with new aches, postural shifts, and added stress on your joints. Gentle chiropractic care can help keep your spine, hips, and pelvis moving well, easing common discomforts like back pain, sciatica, and hip tightness. By supporting your body’s alignment and nervous system, chiropractic care can also improve mobility, circulation, and overall comfort throughout pregnancy.

  • The Webster Technique is a specialized chiropractic approach designed specifically for pregnancy. It focuses on balancing the pelvis and releasing tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments. When the pelvis is well-aligned, it not only helps relieve pain but also creates more space for your baby to move into an optimal position. This can be especially helpful in cases of breech presentation, as improved pelvic balance may give babies the room they need to turn naturally before birth. The Webster Technique is gentle, non-invasive, and safe during all stages of pregnancy.

  • Acupuncture offers a gentle, holistic way to support your body during pregnancy. By regulating the nervous system, it helps lower stress hormones, promote relaxation, and improve sleep — which can make a big difference when discomfort or anxiety disrupt rest. Acupuncture also eases common pregnancy concerns such as low back pain, hip tension, and sciatica by reducing inflammation, relaxing tight muscles, and encouraging natural pain relief through endorphin release. In addition, it can improve circulation and help reduce swelling in the legs and ankles, leaving you feeling more balanced and at ease throughout your pregnancy journey.

  • Body Ready Method® is a specialized approach designed to help pregnant bodies feel strong, balanced, and prepared for both birth and recovery. Using tailored movement strategies, this method helps ease common pregnancy discomforts, create more space in the pelvis, and support optimal baby positioning. Built around five key pillars — upper body mobility, core, pelvis, pelvic floor, and movement patterns — BRM® teaches you how to move smarter, not harder.

    With Body Ready Method®, you can:

    • Support a more efficient, empowered birth

    • Reduce pregnancy-related aches and pains

    • Encourage a smoother postpartum recovery

    • Lower the risk of diastasis recti (abdominal separation)

    • Improve pelvic floor strength and responsiveness to help prevent prolapse and incontinence

  • Prenatal massage is a safe, soothing way to support your body through the changes of pregnancy. It can ease muscle tension, reduce back and hip pain, improve circulation, and help relieve swelling in the legs and feet. Beyond the physical benefits, prenatal massage also promotes deep relaxation, lowers stress, and supports better sleep — helping both you and your baby feel more at ease.

  • Naturopathic care offers gentle, natural support throughout pregnancy by addressing both physical and emotional well-being. From managing nausea and fatigue to supporting digestion, sleep, and stress, naturopathic doctors use safe, evidence-based approaches tailored for each stage of pregnancy. With a focus on nutrition, lifestyle, and natural therapies, naturopathic care helps you feel your best while supporting a healthy environment for your growing baby.
