💥 The Bounce-Back Lie: Why Postpartum Chiropractic Is What Moms Actually Need

Let’s get one thing straight — the idea that you’re supposed to “bounce back” after having a baby is complete garbage. You're not a rubber band. You're a human being who just created life, and your body deserves support, not pressure.

At Catalyst Chiropractic, we’re here to flip the script on the bounce-back culture. Instead of unrealistic expectations and hustle, we offer gentle, effective postpartum care that helps your body heal, rebuild, and regain balance — at your own pace.

What Happens to Your Body Postpartum?

Your body doesn’t go “back” — it moves forward into a new season. During pregnancy and birth, your spine, pelvis, core, and nervous system go through massive changes. Afterward, many moms deal with:

  • Pelvic misalignment or instability

  • Low back, hip, or tailbone pain

  • Wrist and shoulder tension from feeding and holding baby

  • Neck and upper back tightness

  • Core weakness and postural shifts

  • Hormonal and emotional overwhelm

Sound familiar? You’re not broken. You’re just in recovery — and that’s where we come in.

The Catalyst Approach to Postpartum Healing

Dr. Kaylea Cantrell specializes in chiropractic care for women in every stage of motherhood, and postpartum support is one of our favorite things to offer. We use gentle techniques along with targeted massage therapy to help:

  • Realign your pelvis and spine

  • Reduce pain and tension (especially from nursing, carrying, or poor sleep)

  • Support nervous system regulation (because hello, new mom stress)

  • Rebuild balance in your body after birth

We’ll meet you where you are — whether you’re 6 weeks or 6 months postpartum. You don’t need to “get it together” first. You just need a space where your healing matters. This is that space.

Pro tip: We also care for babies. If you’re bringing your newborn, we can check them, too — for latching issues, gas, colic, and more.

Healing Is Not a Race — It’s a Revolution

We’re not here to “snap you back” — we’re here to walk beside you as your body finds a new rhythm. You deserve care that honors what you’ve been through and helps you feel whole again — mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Let’s normalize postpartum recovery, not pressure.

You don’t need to bounce back. You need to come back — to yourself.

Catalyst Chiropractic is here for that.
