Pregnant, informed, and ready to feel supported.
You've done the research. You know your body is capable. You're just looking for a prenatal chiropractor near you who understands pregnancy from the inside out — clinically, biomechanically, and as someone who has actually been in the birth room.
That's exactly who Dr. Chrisi is. With over a decade as a practicing midwife before earning her chiropractic license, she brings a depth of perinatal knowledge that is genuinely rare. This isn't general chiropractic with a prenatal add-on. This is professional prenatal chiropractic care, built around the specific rhythms of your pregnant body.
Currently pregnant as a FTM and I feel that I’m in great care! I always have my questions answered and leave with new tips and exercises/stretches to do at home. They are flexible with my schedule and what works for me and have never been pushy. I found this place through my midwife and I’m glad I did! ★★★★★
More than comfort. Optimal function.
Prenatal chiropractic care isn't just for back pain. It's about restoring full nervous system flow – so your body can adapt, grow, and prepare for birth the way it was designed to.
Nervous system regulation: Everything comes back to this. When your nervous system flows freely, your body adapts to pregnancy with greater ease – better sleep, steadier mood, deeper rest.
Pelvic balance for birth: A balanced pelvis gives your baby optimal room to settle into position – and your body the alignment it needs for an efficient, empowered birth.
Physical comfort, trimester to trimester: Round ligament tension, sciatica, rib tightness, pelvic girdle pain – these are common, not inevitable. We support your body through every phase of change.
The 4th trimester too: We don't stop caring when your baby arrives. Postpartum chiropractic support is part of what we do – because the mother in Mother-Baby deserves recovery care.
Mamas also come to us for support with:
Pubic symphysis pain · Insomnia & poor sleep · Nausea & fatigue · Headaches & neck tension · Carpal tunnel · Acid reflux · Anxiety & nervous system stress · Tight hip flexors · Restless leg syndrome · Breech or transverse baby · VBAC birth prep · C-section recovery prep
Specialized Technique
The Webster Technique: the gold standard for prenatal balance.
The Webster Technique is a specific, gentle sacral analysis and adjustment that reduces tension in the pelvis and surrounding ligaments – creating the space your baby needs to find optimal position for birth.
It's distinct from general prenatal chiropractic, and it's one of the reasons families travel from across the Twin Cities to see us. Dr. Chrisi has been Webster Certified through the ICPA since 2015.
Exactly what to expect when you walk in.
No surprises. No intimidation. Just a calm, thorough visit with a provider who already knows what your body is going through.
- A real conversation first. Your visit begins with a thorough intake – your pregnancy history, your birth goals, where you're feeling tension. This is the midwifery side of Dr. Chrisi showing up. You'll leave feeling heard, not processed.
- Gentle assessment of your spine and pelvis. We assess your alignment with your pregnant body fully in mind – no positions that don't feel right, no force without consent. We move at your pace, always.
- Specialized prenatal positioning. We use pregnancy-specific cushioning and table support so you can lie fully relaxed – belly supported – even in your third trimester. Many mamas say it's the most comfortable they've felt in months.
- A specific, gentle adjustment. Using the Webster Technique and prenatal-adapted spinal care, we work with your body's natural rhythms. Intentional. Informed. Nothing like the dramatic "cracking" you might be imagining.
- You leave with a plan and answers. Every visit includes space for your questions – ask anything. Trimester-specific guidance, birth prep support, stretches and movement recommendations. You are an informed participant in your care, always.

Mother of Two Who Truly Gets It
I just delivered my baby less than a week ago; 100% natural, non-medicated at a hospital. I experienced absolutely no pain (using Hypnobabies) and recovery has been extremely smooth. I truly believe my body was well taken care of and primed to be relaxed and "open" under Dr. Chrisi's care. I have yet to experience any aches or pains postpartum, in LARGE thanks to Dr. Chrisi! I've been able to sit upright and walk around from day one, and had no issues taking the stairs in my house upon return. I am being extremely careful in taking it easy, staying off my feet, mild exercise, etc. My postpartum physical condition is amazing, and I totally did not expect to feel this great (esp after my first birth). I am DEFINITELY returning to Dr. Chrisi as soon as I feel comfortable, and cannot recommend her enough for prenatal care!!! ★★★★★
