Prenatal chiropractic care works alongside, not in place of, the obstetric or midwifery care a pregnant patient receives. Dr. Bronstein at Beacon Clinic of Chiropractic in Grover Beach regularly sees Arroyo Grande patients who are also under the care of an OB-GYN or midwife, and he structures chiropractic care to complement that relationship. Patients are encouraged to let their primary pregnancy care provider know they are receiving chiropractic care, and to share any relevant information from their OB or midwife appointments with Dr. Bronstein so that care decisions can be made with the full clinical picture in view.
Some obstetric care providers are more familiar with prenatal chiropractic than others, and some may have questions about specific techniques or timing. Dr. Bronstein is available to communicate with other providers when a patient finds it useful. His Webster Certification and diplomate in chiropractic pediatrics give him a clinical foundation that is straightforward to explain in a provider-to-provider context. Arroyo Grande patients navigating a pregnancy with complex medical considerations are encouraged to discuss their full situation with Dr. Bronstein during their consultation so that a safe and appropriate care approach can be established from the outset.
