December 04, 2018

Pregnancy delivers a very beautiful gift to a woman, an often longed for child. Pregnancy sometimes delivers an additional gift, back pain. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic assists brand-new mothers and more veteran mothers alike cope with post Montreal pregnancy-related back pain. Montreal chiropractic treatment at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is gentle and safe treatment for post-pregnancy-related back pain, allowing mothers of all stages and ages to relish their mothering days.

Montreal BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis

Women with pregnancy-related Montreal back pain are welcomed at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic. 76% of pregnant women in a new study reported pregnancy-related back pain. Women who experienced back pain prior to pregnancy had a higher risk of pain throughout pregnancy. (1) For post-menopausal women on the whole there is an increased risk of osteoporosis due to the fast bone loss attributed to estrogen depletion. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also play a role. In a new study, the incidence of osteoporosis was 35.24%. Particularly, the risk for post-menopausal osteoporosis rose with the number of children a woman had (higher at more than 4 children) and with the older age (highest at over 35 years) of the mother at the last childbirth. (2) Each full-term pregnancy ups the risk of developing degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy increases twofold a woman’s chances. Why? It’s proposed that it’s because of low back pain and decreased abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that establishes the spine for this condition. (3) One study stresses the fact that weak abdominal muscles affect the stability of the spine and likely contribute to the condition called degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more common in women. (4) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic gently treats and alleviates pain of spondylolisthesis much to the liking of our Montreal chiropractic patients!
