Prenatal Chiropractor in San Antonio

Dr. Foss treats pregnant women with gentle chiropractic adjustments to help with the back pain, pelvic discomfort, and postural changes that come with pregnancy. He uses the Webster Technique to balance the pelvis for an easier pregnancy and delivery, and to give the growing baby optimal room in the womb.

According to the American Pregnancy Association, chiropractic is a very safe and effective treatment during pregnancy. The physiological and endocrine changes of pregnancy — protruding abdomen, increased lumbar curve, pelvic changes, and postural adaptations — can all result in misaligned spine or joints that respond well to chiropractic correction.

Pelvic balance and the Webster Technique: When the pelvis is misaligned, it may reduce the space available for the developing baby — a condition called intrauterine constraint. A misaligned pelvis can also make it difficult for the baby to get into the best position for delivery, potentially leading to breech presentation or the need for interventions such as c-sections. The Webster Technique specifically addresses sacral and pelvic alignment to optimize the intrauterine environment and support natural, non-invasive birth.
