New Bloomfield is a small community in northern Callaway County, situated along Highway 54 between Jefferson City and Fulton. Residents appreciate the rural setting with easy access to the capital, and many stop for chiropractic care on their way to or from work in Jefferson City. Patients in New Bloomfield choose Wheat Chiropractic for pregnancy chiropractic because care is personalized for every age and stage, from children and athletes to expectant mothers and seniors, so the approach is always matched to the person in front of the doctor. The doctors treat the whole family — children, athletes, expectant mothers, and seniors — and the clinic has served Jefferson City and the surrounding area since 2006, giving Dr. Wheat and Dr. Galbraith nearly two decades of hands-on experience. That depth of experience shows in how carefully each visit is tailored, whether you are a first-time patient or have been in care for years.
Pregnancy shifts a woman's center of gravity, loosens ligaments through the hormone relaxin, and adds weight to the front of the body—all of which stress the lower back, pelvis, and hips. Up to 80 percent of pregnant women experience back pain, and many assume it is just part of the process. Wheat Chiropractic offers a drug-free alternative. Using the Webster Technique, a specific sacral analysis and adjustment designed for pregnant women, the doctors relieve pelvic tension, reduce lower-back pain, and help maintain proper pelvic balance. Specialized pregnancy pillows allow comfortable face-down positioning even in the third trimester. Care is safe in every trimester and does not involve medication that could affect the baby. Many patients report easier pregnancies, better sleep, and reduced labor times when the pelvis is properly aligned throughout pregnancy.
Yes. Chiropractic care is drug-free and non-invasive, making it one of the safest pain-relief options during pregnancy. Dr. Wheat is trained in the Webster Technique and uses pregnancy pillows for comfortable positioning, and New Bloomfield moms are welcome in all three trimesters.
Many women begin in the second trimester as the belly grows and back pain starts, but care is safe from early pregnancy through delivery. Starting earlier helps maintain pelvic balance, and New Bloomfield patients can schedule at any stage.
The Webster Technique is designed to restore pelvic balance and reduce uterine tension, which can create more room for the baby to turn. While it is not a guaranteed breech-turning technique, many New Bloomfield moms seek it for that purpose—ask your doctor and OB for guidance.
Frequency depends on your stage of pregnancy and pain level—typically weekly in the second trimester and twice weekly near delivery. Your doctor sets a plan at your first visit, and the short drive from New Bloomfield makes regular appointments manageable.
