October 16, 2025Red Light Therapy for Fall Fatigue in Ottawa: Boost Your Energy & Recovery
October 21, 2025Pregnancy is a time of big changes—and sometimes, big discomforts. Back pain, pelvic pressure, hip stiffness, and trouble sleeping are all too common as your body prepares for birth. At Nobility Performance, we offer safe, gentle chiropractic care tailored for every stage of pregnancy, helping you move better, feel better, and enjoy this special time.
Why Do Pregnant People Experience Pain?
As your baby grows, your body adapts with:
- Shifting posture and center of gravity
- Loosening ligaments (thanks, relaxin hormone!)
- Increased pressure on the pelvis, hips, and lower back
- Changes in gait and balance
This can lead to:
- Lower back pain or sciatica
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Hip and groin discomfort
- Rib and mid-back pain
- Stiffness, headaches, and trouble sleeping
