Pregnancy is a miraculous journey, but it also brings significant changes to a woman's body, including hormonal shifts, weight gain, and postural adjustments. These changes can sometimes lead to discomfort, pain, and even complications during pregnancy and childbirth. However, chiropractic care offers a gentle and effective approach to supporting maternal health and well-being, with the Webster Technique standing out as a valuable tool in this regard.

​

The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic adjustment protocol designed to address pelvic misalignments and sacral subluxations in pregnant women. Developed by Dr. Larry Webster, founder of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), this technique aims to optimize pelvic alignment and balance, thereby supporting the mother's comfort and facilitating optimal fetal positioning.

During pregnancy, hormonal changes and the growing uterus can cause the pelvis to become misaligned. This misalignment may lead to intrauterine constraint, where the baby's position is restricted within the womb. The Webster Technique focuses on restoring pelvic balance and reducing tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments, creating a more favorable environment for the baby to assume the optimal position for birth.

The Webster Technique involves a series of gentle chiropractic adjustments, primarily targeting the sacrum, pelvis, and surrounding soft tissues. By realigning the pelvis and releasing tension in the pelvic muscles, the technique aims to remove any obstructions to the baby's natural movement and descent through the birth canal.
