Chiropractor For A Breech Baby

Located Concord, Clayton, Walnut Creek or Pleasant Hill? We’ve got your back. As your Concord chiropractors for breech babies we customize every visit to suit your particular needs. Your doctor will evaluate your structure to determine the correct way to implement the Webster Technique to improve your biomechanics, giving your breech baby the best chance to turn into the optimum position for birth.

What is Breech Presentation?

If your baby is in a position other than head down, or breech, the most direct method of correction is to have a medical doctor perform an External Cephalic Version (or ECV, or “version”). They will physically apply pressure to your abdomen under fetal monitoring to make sure they are safely turning your breech baby. Barton Chiropractic does not perform any such medical techniques.

The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/SI joint dysfunction. In doing so neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved.

The ICPA (International Chiropractic Pediatric Association) recognizes that in a theoretical and clinical framework of the Webster Technique in the care of pregnant women, sacral subluxation may contribute to difficult labor for the mother (i.e. dystocia). In this clinical and theoretical framework, it is proposed that sacral misalignment may contribute to these three primary causes of dystocia via uterine nerve interference, pelvic misalignment and the tightening and torsion of specific pelvic muscles and ligaments. The resulting tense muscles and ligaments and their aberrant effect on the uterus may prevent the baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for birth. Dystocia is caused by inadequate uterine function, pelvic contraction, and baby malpresentation (breech). The correction of sacral subluxation may have a positive effect on all of these causes of dystocia.

Our goal is to not only help you get out of pain, feel relaxed, and increase your level of health but to allow you to enjoy being pregnant and have the easiest delivery possible.
