BIRTHFIT Tulsa: Pregnancy & Postpartum Empowerment Through Chiropractic Care
Prepare Your Body for Birth and Beyond with Tulsa's Only BIRTHFIT-Certified Chiropractor
At Free Spirit Chiropractic, Dr. Lacey is proud to be Tulsa's first and only BIRTHFIT-certified chiropractor, and the official owner of BIRTHFIT Tulsa, offering a comprehensive approach to pregnancy and postpartum wellness that goes beyond traditional chiropractic adjustments. The BIRTHFIT program empowers you through the transformative journey of motherhood with four essential pillars: fitness, nutrition, Connection, and mindset.
What is BIRTHFIT?
BIRTHFIT is an evidence-based approach to prenatal and postpartum wellness that prepares your body, mind, and spirit for the sacred journey of birth and beyond. Unlike generic fitness programs, BIRTHFIT specifically addresses the unique physical and emotional demands of pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the fourth trimester.
Dr. Lacey's BIRTHFIT certification means you receive specialized care rooted in functional movement patterns, optimal nutrition, nervous system support, and mental resilience—all working together to help
you feel strong, confident, and empowered throughout your motherhood journey.
The Four Pillars of BIRTHFIT
Fitness: Functional Movement for Pregnancy
BIRTHFIT fitness focuses on maintaining strength, mobility, and body awareness throughout pregnancy. We emphasize functional movements that support your changing body, prepare your pelvic floor for birth, and create the foundation for postpartum recovery. This isn't about intense workouts—it's about moving intentionally and connecting with your baby.
Nutrition: Fueling Your
Transformation
Proper nutrition during pregnancy and postpartum directly impacts your energy levels, recovery, and milk production. The BIRTHFIT nutrition pillar provides guidance on nourishing your body with whole foods, managing blood sugar, and supporting optimal hormonal balance during this metabolically demanding time.
Mindset: Mental & Emotional Preparation
Birth is as much a mental journey as a physical one. The mindset pillar incorporates breathwork, meditation, and emotional preparation to help you approach labor with confidence rather than fear. This foundation continues into postpartum, supporting your transition into motherhood.
Chiropractic: Nervous System Optimization
Prenatal chiropractic care is central to the BIRTHFIT approach. Regular adjustments support proper pelvic alignment, reduce pregnancy discomfort, and create optimal space for your baby to grow and position for birth. Dr. Lacey's Webster Technique certification specifically addresses intrauterine constraint and supports physiological birth.

Integrated Wellness at Free Spirit
BIRTHFIT pairs beautifully with ADAPT Tulsa, our thermaculture and contrast therapy wellness center located in the same building. Contrast therapy, infrared sauna, and meditation complement your chiropractic care—though we customize recommendations for pregnancy safety and postpartum healing.
Why BIRTHFIT Certification Matters
Not all prenatal care is created equal. Dr. Lacey's BIRTHFIT certification required extensive training in:
Pregnancy biomechanics and postural adaptations
Safe movement progressions throughout trimesters
Birth physiology and labor preparation
Postpartum recovery and common complications
Trauma-informed care for diverse birth experiences
This specialized knowledge ensures you receive care that's not just safe, but optimized for this transformative season.
