Anyone try chiropractic care for m/s?

[lillymonster]

I was thinking about it, I have been happy with some results with my daughter and reflux, and I thought, maybe it will help with morning sickness too

I can't find a lot of examples on the internet, just wondering if anyone tried it and felt any relief.

I've been wondering the exact same thing.

I haven't tried chiropractic but I have tried acupuncture and while it didn't make it go completely away it definitely took the edge off!

What does a chiro do to help reflux? so interesting!

I don't know exactly, there were a bunch of reports online that it works better than meds. Here is one
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2597889/

My story is that my daughter had feeding delays, and went through private therapy, 2 children's feeding programs, 2 GI specialists, infant and toddler program and allergists and no one could figure out why she wouldn't eat or get her to eat. She was on different reflux meds and nothing worked. By the time she was a little over 2 1/2, I started grasping at straws, took her to a chiro, and after 2 weeks (5 sessions) she was eating solid food. It may have been coincidence, but both professionals and I had been trying to get her to eat for 2 years and the chiro treatments worked in 2 weeks.

She cried the first few sessions, then she started asking me to take her everyday, so I am hoping it could work the same kind of "magic" on my morning sickness.

yes! I go to a chiro anyway for my back but I definitely noticed a reduction in my m/s after I was adjusted last time. It isn't a cure all...meaning you will have to keep going back but it was great while it lasted! I also, do acupuncture regularly and as a PP said it does take the edge off.
ALSO...my DP got me some Mommy's Bliss Morning Sickness Magic pills from Whole Foods and so far they are helping a lot!! They are mostly ginger & B6 but they are small capsules and don't smell like a vitamin. I take them 4x a day.

I hadn't really made the connection but this was my first pregnancy where I've gone to the chiro regularly from the begining and I only threw up like 3 times this pregnancy.. I felt icky but got sick less and it went away sooner.. So who knows?
