💛Ever wondered what the Webster Technique looks like during a prenatal chiropractic visit?
Here is a little walk through it of a prenatal chiropractic visit
The Webster's Technique is a specific chiropractic approach designed to balance the pelvis, reduce tension, and create more space and comfort for both mom and baby.
We start by helping mom get into the open abdomen table with the pregnant pillow.
We then analyze the pelvis and surrounding muscles like the piriformis muscle.
Using specific adjustment we adjust pelvis, sacrum and spine.
Then with mom laying on her back we release the round ligament and muscle that sorrounds the pelvis like the psoas muscle.
The entire technique is safe, comfortable, and tailored to your stage of pregnancy.
If you’re expecting and looking for natural ways to feel better in your body, the Webster Technique may be exactly what you’ve been searching for. Send us a message or book your prenatal visit—we’d love to support you through this beautiful season.

Birth—no matter how smooth—can place stress on a baby’s delicate spine and nervous system. Chiropractic care on babies can help with:
✨ Support healthy sleep
✨ Ease feeding challenges
✨ Soothe colic and fussiness
✨ Encourage proper development
✨ Promote calm and comfort
I often explain to patients that the chiropractic adjustment produces more than a mechanical change it creates an input on your nervous system that allows for better healing and functioning. This is how chiropractic care works and we see it on our babies and children.
💙 Because wellness starts from day one.
