Pregnancy brings many changes to the body, especially in the pelvis, spine, and surrounding ligaments. These changes can sometimes lead to discomfort, tightness, or imbalance.
At DuPage Health Physical Therapy in Naperville, the Webster Technique is offered as a gentle, specific chiropractic approach designed to support pelvic balance during pregnancy.
Care is provided by Susanne Kowalski, DC, who is certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), an internationally recognized organization specializing in prenatal and pediatric chiropractic care.
What Is the Webster Technique?
The Webster Technique is a chiropractic analysis and adjustment focused on improving alignment of the pelvis and sacrum.
When the pelvis is properly balanced, it helps reduce stress on the surrounding muscles and ligaments, including those that support the uterus.
This creates a more comfortable and functional environment during pregnancy.
How Pelvic Imbalance Affects Pregnancy
As the body adapts to pregnancy, the pelvis may shift out of alignment. This can increase tension in the ligaments connected to the uterus, sometimes limiting comfort and movement.
Pelvic imbalance may contribute to:
Low back pain
Hip discomfort
Sacral or pelvic pressure
Difficulty finding comfortable positions
The Webster Technique works to restore balance and reduce this tension naturally.
