What is the Webster Technique?
Are you seeking a more comfortable pregnancy or looking to prepare your body for an easier labor and delivery?
The Webster Technique was developed by Dr. Larry Webster in 1978—the very same year Blaine Chiropractic Center was founded! It is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment designed to balance the pelvic muscles and ligaments, reducing uterine constraint and creating optimal room for baby to assume the best birth position—head down.
First, our doctor carefully analyzes the sacrum and delivers a gentle, specific adjustment to restore pelvic alignment. This is followed by specialized soft-tissue release of the surrounding round ligaments and muscles. Proper alignment of the pelvis creates a safer, smoother, and far more comfortable birth experience for both mom and baby!

When Do You Start Webster Technique?
We recommend seeing a chiropractor during pregnancy as early as the first trimester to support spinal adaptation and relieve joint stress as your body changes. However, we typically initiate specific, focused Webster Technique protocols starting around 30 weeks of pregnancy.
How Often Should I Come for Visits?
Frequency depends on your individual needs. When actively working to release pelvic tension and create space for baby, we typically see moms 2 to 3 times per week until labor or until baby has turned head down. At that point, care is comfortably scaled back to once per week for maintenance.
