Webster technique is a chiropractic analysis and gentle adjustment of the sacrum. As with all chiropractic adjustments, the intent is to improve the nervous system so the body can function better and pelvic balance can be improved. A balanced pelvis reduces undue tension to the pelvic muscles and ligaments.
In pregnancy, if the pelvis is not balanced, it can lead to uneven pulling on the pelvic muscles and ligaments. When balance is restored to the mother’s pelvis, her uterus and pelvis function better. Additionally, the baby may be able to comfortably assume the best possible position throughout pregnancy and for birth. Chiropractic care in pregnancy is vital to the normal physiological function in pregnancy and birth.
Here are some of the potential benefits of getting chiropractic care:
- Reduces interference to the mother’s vital nerve system, which controls and coordinates all of her systems and function.
- Removes tension to the muscles and ligaments that support the uterus.
- Prepares the pelvis for an easier pregnancy and birth by creating a state of balance in pelvic bony structures, muscles, and ligaments.
- Relieves back, neck, or joint pain.
- Nutritional and exercise recommendations
Offers the baby room to move into the best possible position for birth.
