Pregnancy and Chiropractic With Webster Technique

Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy

Chiropractic care during pregnancy promotes the natural development of baby as well! By ensuring proper motion and alignment of the mother’s pelvis and spine, we are able to restore balance, so baby has plenty of room to grow.

In our office we use tables that adjust for a pregnant woman’s body, and I use techniques that avoid unneeded pressure on the abdomen.

Chiropractic care works to improve the health and efficiency of the nervous system. Proper nervous system supply to the womb is extremely vital to baby’s nourishment and development.

We are often asked...

What is the Webster Technique?

The Webster technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/SI joint dysfunction. In so doing, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved, and intrauterine constraint is reduced.

At what point in my pregnancy should I begin chiropractic care?

While you can start care at any time during your pregnancy, I encourage moms to reach out as soon as you know you are pregnant. Rest assured, even if you are nearing the end of your pregnancy, you can still experience the benefits of getting adjusted.

Is chiropractic care during pregnancy safe?

The answer is….. YES! According to the American Pregnancy Association, there are no known contraindications to chiropractic care throughout pregnancy. Investing in the fertility and pregnancy wellness of women who are pregnant or trying to conceive is a routine care for most chiropractors.

What is a Chiropractic Adjustment and What Does It Do?

The most common therapeutic procedure performed by doctors of chiropractic is known as “spinal manipulation,” also called “chiropractic adjustment.” The purpose of manipulation is to restore joint mobility by manually applying a controlled force into joints that have become hypomobile – or restricted in their movement – as a result of a tissue injury. Tissue injury can be caused by a single traumatic event, such as improper lifting of a heavy object, or through repetitive stresses, such as sitting in an awkward position with poor spinal posture for an extended period of time. In either case, injured tissues undergo physical and chemical changes that can cause inflammation, pain, and diminished function for the sufferer. Manipulation, or adjustment of the affected joint and tissues, restores mobility, thereby alleviating pain and muscle tightness, and allowing tissues to heal.

Doctors of chiropractic frequently treat individuals with neuromusculoskeletal complaints, such as headaches, joint pain, neck pain, low back pain and sciatica. Chiropractors also treat patients with osteoarthritis, spinal disc conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, sprains, and strains. However, the scope of conditions that Doctors of chiropractic manage or provide care for is not limited to neuromusculoskeletal disorders. Chiropractors have the training to treat a variety of non-neuromusculoskeletal conditions such as: allergies, asthma, digestive disorders, otitis media (non-supportive) and other disorders as new research is developed.
