Webster Technique Breech Baby. If the Webster Technique is not effective at turning a baby an OBGYN may also have methods for turning him or her. How the Webster Technique Works Like other chiropractic care techniques the Webster Technique focuses on addressing spinal misalignments in this case with the goal of reducing pressure on the uterus.
Larry Webster who also founded the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association ICPA. The late Larry Webster DC of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association developed a technique that enabled chiropractors to reduce stress on the pregnant womans pelvis leading to the relaxation of the uterus and surrounding ligaments. More and more people are turning to chiropractic care throughout their pregnancies to address issues that may contribute to breech presentation.
Thus making it easier for your breech or transverse baby to turn naturally into the optimal foetal position for birth.
However occasionally you may need more body work or self-care to flip a breech baby. A more relaxed uterus makes it easier for a breech baby to turn naturally. This additional pressure reduces space in the womb restricting the babys movement and preventing them from flipping into a better position. Grant Lisetor implements the Webster Technique for mothers with babies in the breech position and more often than not helps mothers and babies avoid C-sections.
