Dr. Alana and the Webster Technique: Unlocking Optimal Pelvic Alignment

At Universal Chiropractic, Dr. Alana is a skilled and experienced practitioner who employs various techniques to help her patients achieve optimal health and alignment. One of the techniques she specializes in is the renowned Webster Technique.
The Webster Technique is a chiropractic method specifically designed to address the needs of pregnant women. It aims to restore balance in the mother’s pelvis, optimizing the alignment and function of her body during pregnancy. Developed by Dr. Larry Webster, it has become a valuable tool in assisting expecting mothers and their growing babies.
Dr. Alana begins by carefully evaluating the alignment and movement of a pregnant patient's pelvis. She recognizes that hormonal and postural changes during pregnancy can affect the stability of the pelvic joints, potentially leading to discomfort, pain, and even complications during labor.
During treatment, Dr. Alana applies gentle and specific manual adjustments to the ligaments and structures surrounding the pelvis. By using non-invasive techniques, she encourages proper joint movement and function within the region.
The primary goal of the Webster Technique is to correct any asymmetries or imbalances in the pelvis, creating an environment more conducive to optimal fetal positioning. When the pelvis is correctly aligned, the baby has more space to move freely within the womb. This can potentially help the baby settle into the ideal head-down position, also known as a vertex presentation.
It is important to note that the Webster Technique is not a method of flipping a breech baby, nor is it a guarantee of a specific outcome or a substitute for medical care. Rather, the technique focuses on supporting the body's innate ability to function properly so that it can reach its maximum potential in facilitating a smooth labor and delivery process.
Dr. Alana creates a warm and caring environment during each session, ensuring that her patients feel comfortable and at ease throughout the process. She believes in fostering open communication between herself and her patients, answering any questions they may have and addressing their concerns.
