Pregnancy
Chiropractic care throughout pregnancy has many benefits. Including more optimal births, decreases labor times, and less intervention.Here we utilize Webster technique, a technique that is gentle and specific for pregnant mamas.
How Chiropractic Can Help
Improves Nervous System Function: Our nervous system controls every function of our body. Including the production of hormones. Hormones play a critical getting pregnant, staying pregnant and giving birth. Our nervous system also tells our brains where we are in space, this is important feedback while pregnant especially considering your center of gravity consistently changes through pregnancy.
Addressing Pelvic Misalignments: Pelvic misalignments can sometimes affect the positioning and function of the reproductive organs. Chiropractic adjustments can help realign the pelvis, creating an optimal environment for baby.
Webster Technique
For pregnant patients, Dr Shannon utilizes the Webster technique to restore balance to the pelvis.
The Webster technique is a gentle and effective chiropractic analysis and technique that optimizes the function of the nervous system. The technique focuses on pelvic balance, which may lead to more room for baby in utero, leading to baby resting in an optimal position in mothers uterus.
When restrictions are present in mothers pelvis (bony, muscle, or ligaments) this may results in uneven pulling and torsion, which may disable baby’s ability to get into an optimal birthing position. Moms often experience less low back pain, better movement, better sleep, easier to breath, and overall more comfort when under Webster care.
