The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment of the sacrum that corrects or improves the neuro-muscular imbalance in the pelvis thus increasing the potential for safer, easier births. Adjusting the sacrum via Webster analysis and working with the round ligament throughout pregnancy may minimize aberrant uterine tension, potential fetal constraint and possible malposition at the time of delivery. The Webster Technique was created over 30 years ago by a chiropractor named Dr. Larry Webster, DC. Due to the empirical observations that pregnant woman under chiropractic care with breech fetal pregnancies were reporting correction of fetal position to vertex following the use of the Webster Technique, the Webster Technique was described in its early days as a “breech turning technique”. The Webster Technique is a safe, gentle, effective technique used on all of the pregnant patients at our office. Dr. Ashley Higgins, DC was certified in the technique in 2016.
