Webster Technique Treatment in Gastonia, NC

Gentle, Effective Prenatal Chiropractic Care

At Southeast Family Chiropractic, we specialize in helping expectant mothers experience a more comfortable pregnancy through the Webster Technique—a safe, gentle chiropractic method designed to restore pelvic balance and improve overall comfort during pregnancy.


Our pregnancy chiropractors in Gastonia, NC, provide expert prenatal care that supports both mother and baby, helping relieve tension, promote proper alignment, and encourage optimal fetal positioning for a smoother, healthier pregnancy and delivery.

What Is the Webster Technique?

The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic adjustment developed to restore proper alignment and balance in the pelvis and sacrum (the base of the spine).


During pregnancy, changes in posture and pelvic alignment can place added stress on the lower back, hips, and supporting ligaments. These imbalances can cause discomfort, restricted movement, and even affect the baby’s position in the womb.

By correcting these misalignments, the Webster Technique helps:

  • Reduce tension in the uterus and surrounding ligaments
  • Improve nerve function and communication
  • Create more room for the baby to move into an optimal position
  • Relieve common pregnancy discomforts like back pain, hip pain, and pelvic pressure

This gentle, targeted adjustment promotes comfort, balance, and overall wellness throughout pregnancy.

How the Webster Technique Works

The Webster Technique focuses on realigning the pelvis and sacrum using gentle, precise pressure.

Here’s what happens during treatment:

  • Your chiropractor applies light adjustments to the lower spine and pelvic joints.
  • The goal is to reduce sacral misalignment and ease tension on the ligaments supporting the uterus.
  • This helps restore normal pelvic motion, relax surrounding muscles, and encourage ideal fetal positioning.

The Webster Technique is non-invasive, safe for both mother and baby, and tailored to each patient’s stage of pregnancy and comfort level.
