Even in low-risk pregnancies, a baby presenting as breech (feet first) instead of vertex (head first) is considered extremely dangerous, and most OBs no longer deliver breech. Instead, if your baby hasn’t moved into vertex alignment, you will very likely have a Cesarean. 

There are a few options to attempt to move a baby into position for birth, including the external cephalic version and the Webster Technique.

A body will stay in motion or at rest until acted upon by an outside force. This fundamental law of physics doesn’t just hold to mechanical engineering and physics but to our bodies as well. 

The body and joints of someone who remains sedentary will become accustomed to that state and become resistant to moving. Conversely, frequent motion can help keep you active and more easily mobile.

So you are in pain, it could be from an injury or could be genetics, and you are wondering if it is time to visit the doctor. But last time, the doctor just prescribed generic pain medicine and sent you on your way. Now, the medication has stopped working, the pain has come back, and you are too tired to repeat the same cycle as before. 

You look up different types of doctors to give something else a try, and you come across chiropractors and orthopedists. Both focus on similar areas of the body but have very different approaches. 

Which one should you see? Let’s dive deeper into the similarities and differences between chiropractic and orthopedic care.
