Pregnancy Care

Dr. Matt's wife, Monica has had four healthy pregnancies.  We would love to help you on your journey to being a Momma!

Webster Technique

Dr. Matt McCann is certified in the Webster Technique. This is a technique that can be used on anyone, though it is most often used for pregnant mothers.

The Webster technique is a chiropractic analysis and gentle adjustment of the sacrum. As with all chiropractic adjustments, our intent is to improve the nervous system so the body can function better. Improving pelvic balance is the goal. A balanced pelvis reduces undue tension in the attached muscles and ligaments. In pregnant women, if the pelvis is not balanced, the uneven pulling on these muscles and ligaments may be restricting the baby’s ability to get into the best possible position for birth. Call us at 360-657-7183 to schedule your first appointment.

​“Supportive health care providers, renewed trust in the body and the whole health benefits of chiropractic are becoming a vital ingredient to an overall easier and safer delivery for the mother and baby.”

Dr. Matt has been a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association since 2006. He was certified in the Webster Technique when his wife was expecting their first child. Dr. Matt took an additional training course in 2018 and is excited about the new advancements that have been made.

From personal experience, Dr. Matt and his wife are very grateful for this technique! They know how much of a difference it made in their (four!) pregnancy and childbirth experiences. According to Jeanie Ohm and decades of research, chiropractic care during pregnancy helps to:

• Reduce interference to the mother’s vital nerve system which controls and coordinates all of her systems and functions.
• Prepare the pelvis for an easier pregnancy and birth by creating a state of balance in pelvic bony structures, muscles and ligaments.
• Remove tension in the ligaments that support the uterus thus potentially reducing aberrant tension to the woman’s uterus.
• Improve maternal function and therefore decrease the potential for unnecessary intervention.​
