I have treated many pregnant patients over the last 30 years. It is usually for low back disorders. Also pelvic pain, neck or mid back pain, carpel tunnel syndrome, and other disorders. A portion of these cases have been referrals from Ob/Gyn's.
There's no research to suggest chiropractic care presents health risks to a pregnant woman or her fetus. It also minimizes the use of opioids, and anti-inflammatory drugs that can cause premature closure of the fetus' heart valve.

Veterans benefit from pain treatment without drugs
A new study financed by the VA, the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and the National Institute of Health finds a lower short term risk of adverse post-treatment outcomes among returning military service personnel with chronic pain who received nondrug therapy. There was a significantly lower risk of alcohol or drug use disorders, accidental poisoning with pain drugs, thoughts of suicide self-inflicted injuries, including suicide attempts.
The lead researcher hypothesized "If nondrug treatments make chronic pain more bearable, people may be more likely to have positive experiences in life. That makes them less likely to have thoughts of suicide or to turn to drugs.
