Throughout the course of a pregnancy, a woman’s pelvis and lumbar spine can become imbalanced and restricted due to the increased weight of the fetus. Regular chiropractic care helps to prepare the mother’s body for these changes, allows for adequate space in the pelvis so that the baby can find a head down position for labor and delivery and reduces labor and delivery time.

Additionally, if the baby remains breech, most chiropractors are trained in a technique called the Webster adjustment, which is designed to correct any imbalance or restriction in the mother’s pelvic and sacral area that may be impeding the baby from turning into a head down position. There is a high success rate for helping breech babies to turn with this technique.
