Hi everyone! My name is Brittany, and when I first found Kinkaid Family Chiropractic, I was 37 weeks pregnant with a breech baby. My OB had scheduled me for a procedure in the hospital to try to flip my baby after my latest ultrasound, but it came with many risks. I began to search for ways to turn a baby and there was so many positive reviews about using a chiropractor. I came across Kinkaid Family Chiropractic during my search. I messaged them a few questions on Facebook late Friday night, and I got a reply less than 2 hrs later, and was scheduled for an appointment on the following Monday.
Monday quickly came, and as I headed to the practice, I had some skepticism and feelings of personal defeat (my in hospital procedure was scheduled for the following day, Tuesday). All of that skepticism instantly went away when I entered the practice. I’ve never felt more welcome in a medical facility. The intake personnel was so professional, welcoming, and caring. She took the time to sit with me and explain my insurance coverage, and what to expect during the initial visit.
The real magic happened with Dr. Kinkaid. She was so positive and cheerful and I immediately felt like I was in the best hands. She thoroughly assessed my body while explaining exactly what she was looking for. I laid on a roller bed for a bit then went back into her office for the adjustment. During the adjustment, she aligned my pelvis in such a way to help open it wider. She also gave me tips to do when I went home to encourage the baby to rotate and move into a better position for birth. I left the practice with no back pain at all, did all of her home exercises, then went to bed.
The next morning, I woke up feeling completely different (now 38 weeks pregnant), was able to breathe so much better and felt like baby was moved. I went to the hospital for my procedure and was pleasantly surprised with the results! 24 hours after my appointment with Dr. Kinkaid, the baby flipped and the head was deep in my pelvis. I was discharged quicker than I was admitted.
My only regret is not going to Kinkaid Family Chiropractic sooner. I am very excited to continue treatment throughout these next few days in the pregnancy to encourage a smoother vaginal delivery!
