My office is set up to assist pregnant women in staying comfortable with her changing body shape. I have a special table that can accommodate growing bellies. The following photos show a full term pregnant patient getting her weekly adjustment.

 Notice the drop down plate of the table so that the patient can lay comfortably on her stomach while I assess her spinal alignment for subluxations. (Subluxations are misalignments in the spine which not only cause discomfort but also interference to the nervous system.)
