Pregnancy Chiropractic in Eden Prairie
Welcome to Real Health Chiropractic Clinic, where Dr. ShaRhae Matousek, our compassionate and skilled chiropractor, has been providing chiropractic care to moms-to-be for over 20 years. She’s dedicated to helping you feel and function at your best throughout your pregnancy journey, so you can embrace the birth experience you’ve always wanted.
Webster Certified: A Technique That Works Wonders
The Webster Technique is a specialized analysis and adjusting method that focuses on restoring harmony to your pelvis and sacrum while easing tension in the round ligaments. The aim is to help your body gracefully adapt to the whirlwind changes of pregnancy, all while making sure your growing baby has ample space to get into the perfect birth position.
Dr. ShaRhae is not just any chiropractor. She’s completed an esteemed Fellowship in Pediatrics and Obstetrics with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) and has been a Webster Technique certified chiropractor since 2001. Plus, she loves sharing her knowledge by teaching this effective method to fellow chiropractors.

How Pregnancy Changes Your Body—and Why Alignment Matters
As your body goes through incredible changes week by week, the pelvis can shift and create tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments. Proper pelvic alignment helps reduce stress on your body, supports more balanced movement, and helps give your baby the best opportunity to settle into an optimal position for labor and delivery.
For many pregnant women, this also means real relief from round ligament pain, pelvic pressure, and tightness. Gentle adjustments help reduce tension in the supporting structures of the pelvis so you can stay more comfortable as your baby grows.
Pregnancy also places increased demands on your nervous system. Gentle chiropractic adjustments help improve communication between your brain and body, allowing you to adapt more efficiently to the physical and hormonal changes happening throughout your pregnancy. And as your center of gravity shifts, posture changes in ways that often lead to back, hip, and shoulder discomfort. Chiropractic care supports better alignment and body awareness, reducing that strain so you can move through pregnancy feeling your best.
More Than Pain Relief: Supporting Your Whole Pregnancy
Our prenatal chiropractic care is thoughtfully adapted for your changing body. That means modified techniques, pregnancy-specific positioning, and a focus on supporting your nervous system and pelvic balance week by week. Our specially designed tables allow you and your baby to be safely and comfortably supported during every visit.
While many patients initially come to us for discomfort, plenty continue care because they want to support overall function, balance, and a more connected pregnancy experience. You don’t have to be in pain to benefit. For women preparing for a natural or low-intervention birth, chiropractic care is often an important part of birth preparation. By promoting alignment and nervous system function, care helps your body feel more prepared, adaptable, and ready for labor.
Chiropractic care also fits beautifully alongside your OB, midwife, doula, or other providers. Many families choose a team-based approach to pregnancy, and we’re happy to collaborate as part of your care circle for a more connected, proactive experience. Research has shown that women who receive regular chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy enjoy shorter labor times and less painful deliveries.
Postpartum Care: Healing and Recovery
At our practice, we don’t stop at pregnancy care. We’re here to support new moms postpartum, helping them heal and recover from the birth process while adapting to the physical demands of holding and feeding their precious little ones. Think of it as a physical reset—we’ll help bring your body back into alignment before everything tightens up again.
Dr. Matousek was absolutely wonderful! I saw her for a prenatal chiropractic adjustment and it helped my back pain immensely and immediately. She paid attention to me, was very careful, assessed me instead of just performing general treatment which I have had from other chiropractors. She listened carefully to my concerns, I felt very well cared for. Would absolutely recommend her care to any pregnant mom or any patient otherwise.
