How Pregnancy Affects Spinal Alignment
Growing uterus and hormonal changes create biomechanical shifts throughout pregnancy. Relaxin hormone softens ligaments while weight distribution changes alter spinal curves. These natural adaptations often produce discomfort in low back, hips, pelvis, and upper back. Not to mention the natural weight gain.
- Shifting center of gravity stresses lumbar spine
- Relaxin softens sacroiliac joint ligaments
- Breast tissue growth affects upper back posture
- Pelvic floor tension from weight bearing changes
- Rib cage expansion creates thoracic discomfort
