Pregnancy & Chiropractic – Webster’s Technique
Webster’s Technique for Pregnancy Adjustments
The International Chiropractic Pediatric Association defines Webster’s Technique as:
“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. “
