Today, we’re talking all about chiropractic care in the postpartum period—what it is and how it may help you heal after giving birth. Now listen, I know some doctors can be quick to dismiss things like chiropractic care or other so-called “alternative” approaches. But I really believe it's important that we expand our lens and stay open to options outside the traditional box—especially when those options may offer real benefits for postpartum healing and wellness. In this episode, we’re welcoming back award-winning prenatal chiropractor and childbirth educator, Dr. Elliot Berlin. He was a guest on the podcast way back on episode 44 and he’s back to talk about how chiropractic care can support your body during recovery. If you're curious about safe, effective ways to care for your body after baby, this one's for you! In this Episode, You’ll Learn About: How personal fertility struggles shifted Dr. Berlin from medicine to holistic care What chiropractors really do (and no it doesn’t always involve cracking) How restoring joint motion supports recovery What the postpartum “golden window” is and how it makes chronic issues easier to resolve What physical stress pregnancy places on joints, muscles, and posture Whether chiropractic care is safe after giving birth How laser therapy can support C-section recovery and pelvic floor healing How integrating physical therapy and chiropractic care can improve outcomes What to look for in a chiropractor Why postpartum recovery works best with team-based, collaborative care _________ Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode303 Feel calm and confident before birth with the $37 Mindset Bundle!
