Webster Technique for Pregnancy Care and a Safer, Easier Natural Birth

Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and gentle adjustment that reduces interference to the nervous system, and especially balances pelvic muscles and ligaments. This in turn decreases the cause of intra-uterine constraint and allows the baby to get into the best possible position for birth. It is recommended for all pregnant women as part of their pregnancy care to facilitate a safer, easier natural birth. In expectant mothers presenting breech, there has been a high reported success rate of the baby turning to the normal vertex or cephalic position. The technique has also been successfully used where babies presented transverse and posterior. Chiropractor Mike Black has helped correct breech and posterior presentations in pregnant women to achieve a safe natural birth.

Remedial Massage Therapy

We have long held that offering various other services in the Centre in addition to Chiropractic complements our care and adds value for our clients. We encourage the use of regular Deep Remedial Massage, which can release chronically contracted muscles and fascia, improving the balance amoung muscle groups and promoting healthful circulation. Massage triggers the body's relaxation response, interrupting a cycle of stress and muscle tension that can build in response to life's challenges.  Call for details.
