What is the Webster Technique?
If you are pregnant, chances are you’ve been told to find a Webster Certified chiropractor to see during pregnancy. But what exactly is the Webster Technique and why is it important during pregnancy?
According to the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), the Webster Technique is defined as a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of subluxation and/or SI joint dysfunction. In doing so, neurobiomechanical function in the sacral/pelvic region is improved.
In simpler terms, the Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment that reduces nervous system stress, balances pelvic bones, muscles and ligaments and optimizes the mother’s pelvic function in pregnancy and birth.
When your pelvis is functioning properly during pregnancy, you are likely to experience less lower back pain, more comfort, and better movement.
