Pregnancy Care

There are no known contraindications to chiropractic care throughout pregnancy. Dr Robyn and Dr Michael take a specific interest in prenatal and postnatal care. Dr Robyn is trained to use the Webster Technique. Webster Technique helps to improve pelvic balance and may reduce pelvic constraints.

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.
Chiropractic care benefits all aspects of your body's ability to be healthy. This is accomplished by working with the nervous system--the communication system between your brain and body. Doctors of Chiropractic work to correct spinal, pelvic and cranial misalignments (subluxations). When misaligned, these structures create an imbalance in surrounding muscles and ligaments. Additionally, the resulting nerve system stress may affect the body's ability to function optimally.

The Webster technique specific diversified adjusting technique can be used for pregnant women through pregnancy to reduce pelvic subluxations. It is useful for all women and was not designed as a breech turning technique.

Much more information on Webster technique can be found on USA website of icpa4kids.org
