Important Facts About The Webster Technique
High Success Rate in Correcting Breech Position: Clinical studies and reports indicate that the Webster Technique has an 82% success rate in correcting breech presentations. This is a significant statistic because it helps many mothers avoid cesarean sections due to non-optimal fetal positioning.
Developed in 1978: The Webster Technique was developed by Dr. Larry Webster in 1978 as a safe means to restore proper pelvic balance and function. It has since become a standard of practice among chiropractors who specialize in prenatal care.
Reduction in Labor Time: Research suggests that first-time mothers who receive chiropractic care, including the Webster Technique, throughout pregnancy have, on average, a 25% shorter labor time. Mothers who have had multiple children experienced a 31% reduction in labor time.
Improves Pregnancy Wellness: Regular use of the Webster Technique during pregnancy can help improve maternal comfort by reducing pelvic and back pain, which are common complaints during pregnancy.
Supports Natural Birthing Process: By correcting misalignments and reducing tension in the pelvis and surrounding muscles, the Webster Technique supports the natural birthing process, potentially reducing the need for interventions like forceps, vacuum extraction, or cesarean delivery.
Widely Endorsed by Professionals: The International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) endorses the Webster Technique and provides training to chiropractors. It is recognized as a safe, effective, and gentle adjustment for pregnant women.
Focus on Nervous System Function: Beyond just mechanical adjustments, the Webster Technique is designed to improve nervous system function, which is vital for maintaining a healthy pregnancy and preparing the body for delivery.
Preventive Approach: Many pregnant women begin the Webster Technique as a preventive measure to maintain pelvic balance and optimize their body's ability to adapt to pregnancy changes before any issues arise.
