The 4 Pillars of Health in Pregnancy
In order to thrive as human beings, we need 4 things:
Optimal nutrition: whole food-based nutritional supplements and clean diet
Adequate rest: resting during the day as well as sleeping enough at night
Healthy movement: carefully planned workouts
A well-functioning nervous system: the chiropractic adjustment
Each pillar is just as necessary as the others in order for us to achieve optimal health. When a woman is carrying a child, her body has special needs as she is under extra stress! Dr. Robin can help you achieve each pillar of health in realistic and easy ways in your life. As you take better care of yourself, you set yourself up for an easier pregnancy, labor, and postnatal period.
Please enjoy and pass along the free resources below to enhance ALL levels of your health and well-being.
Optimal Nutrition: Dr. Robin uses Standard Process supplements in her office because they are all food-based and as clean as possible, meaning they are safe for pregnant women and even children! You can set up a nutritional consultation to determine which supplements are appropriate for you, or schedule it along with a chiropractic adjustment.

Adequate rest: We all know that sleep becomes more elusive as pregnancy continues, which is actually your body training you to be sleepless for awhile when your baby is first born! Unfortunately, our lives don't necessarily slow down to accommodate for rest during the day.

Each time you rest, you make a deposit in your "health" reserve and help your body become more resilient to stress and tension.
