Yes: There are certain modalities that become contraindicated as a pregnancy progresses but chiropractic care is a field of practice and a chiropractor can help with back pain throughout your entire term. Like all fields of medicine, there are differences between practitioners so choose someone you are comfortable with, who listens to you and responds to your concerns.

Probably: I would certainly let the chiropractor know you are pregnant and there are some things that they can do that are safe and can sometimes help in treating the back pain often associated with pregnancy. Thank you for the question.
