Pregnancy (Webster Technique)
The Webster technique, is founded by Larry Webster, D.C. & originated from the United States. It is a specialized Chiropractic technique performed by highly trained chiropractors for patients who are pregnant.
This technique focuses on two ligaments, two bones and two muscles. Once these six structures are "released" the baby has room to drop into place ( preventing and helping with babies in breeched positions).
Prenatal chiropractic therapy creates space in the body, improves blood flow, lymphatic drainage and enhance nerve function. The increased abdominal space also takes pressure off nerves which will then increase neural stimulation and baby development.
This is why the Webster Technique, is gentle, effective, and very safe.
