Prenatal Chiropractic Care in Holt, Michigan
Webster Certified pregnancy care from Dr. Moriah Severance, at our Holt office on E Willoughby Road.
Care That Changes as Your Pregnancy Does
Your pelvis, low back and hips carry a load that changes month by month, and the discomfort that comes with that rarely stays in one place. Dr. Moriah Severance, DC, ND is Webster Certified and looks after pregnancy care at our Holt office: she examines how your pelvis and lower spine are moving at this point in your pregnancy, then adjusts what is restricted using positioning and cushioning made for a pregnant body. Care here is non-invasive and drug-free, and what we find is explained to you before anything is treated. Read more about whether chiropractic care is safe for children and during pregnancy.

Questions Expecting Mothers Ask
Which doctor sees me for pregnancy care at Holt Chiropractic?
Dr. Moriah Severance, DC, ND is Webster Certified and is the doctor you will normally see for pregnancy-related care at our Holt office. Dr. Jessica Coleman also treats patients here and can look after the rest of your family. Ask for Dr. Moriah when you book online, or call (517) 699-2646 and we will put you with her.
Can I see a chiropractor while pregnant?
Yes. Many patients see us before, during and after pregnancy for help with the aches and pains of this stage of life. Dr. Moriah Severance is Webster Certified and adapts every adjustment to where you are in your pregnancy.
What is the Webster Technique?
It is a specific, gentle adjustment of the pelvis and sacrum that aims to ease tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments, and it is the certification Dr. Moriah holds. Some expecting mothers ask about it because of how their baby is lying. Published reports on it are case series written up by practitioners rather than controlled trials, so we describe it for what it is, not as a guaranteed outcome for you or your baby.*
How far into my pregnancy can I still be adjusted?
There is no point at which you become too far along for us to see you. Women come to our Holt office in the first trimester, in the last few weeks, and again once the baby has arrived; the positioning, the cushioning and the amount of pressure used are what change as your pregnancy goes on.

Popular questions
From our FAQs:
Is chiropractic care safe?
Yes. Chiropractic care is safe when performed by licensed professionals like our team in Holt, Michigan. Side effects are rare and mild, typically slight soreness that fades quickly, and years of training mean every adjustment is precise and effective.
From our FAQs:
Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?
No. We use precise, gentle force to realign your spine or joints, which relieves nerve pressure, reduces inflammation, and improves mobility. That pop you might hear is just gas collapsing in the joint, and it is perfectly normal.
From our FAQs:
How many visits will I need?
Every patient is unique, so the answer depends on you. After your adjustment we create a personalized plan that may include follow-up visits, corrective exercises, and complementary therapies like massage or stretching.
From our FAQs:
What conditions do chiropractors treat?
We address a wide range of issues, including back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches and migraines, and sports injuries. Neck pain is often tied to poor posture or whiplash injuries, and sciatica is radiating leg pain from nerve compression. Whatever brings you in, our chiropractors are here to help.
From our FAQs:
What happens at my first visit?
Your first visit starts with an initial consultation, where you share your health goals and symptoms with us. Next is a physical exam, where we assess your posture, spine, and range of motion. Then comes your first adjustment. Finally we outline a care plan, a roadmap for your recovery and wellness.
From our FAQs:
Do you need a referral to see a chiropractor?
Most insurance plans do not require a referral. Some plan types do. Call (517) 699-2646 before your visit and we will check your specific plan for you.
From our FAQs:
Can children see a chiropractor?
Yes. Dr. Moriah Severance's practice focuses on children's health and family care, and adjustments for infants and young children use very gentle techniques. Parents bring their children to us for concerns such as latch issues, torticollis, colic, and reflux.
From our FAQs:
Can I see a chiropractor if I am pregnant?
Yes. Dr. Moriah Severance is Webster Certified and cares for patients before, during, and after pregnancy. Adjustments are adapted for comfort at every stage.
From our FAQs:
What insurance do you accept?
We work with most major insurances. We accept Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Blue Care Network, Cigna, Aetna, Humana, UnitedHealthcare, VA Community Care Network, Priority Health, HAP, and McLaren Commercial. We also accept Medicare (Aetna Medicare Advantage, McLaren Medicare Advantage, Medicare Plus Blue) and Medicaid (Meridian, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, Aetna Better Health, HAP CareSource, McLaren Medicaid, Blue Cross Complete). Call (517) 699-2646 before your visit and we will verify your coverage. Injured in an auto accident? Auto-injury care may be covered under your Michigan no-fault Personal Injury Protection (PIP).
