Webster Technique
Breech baby? Room to turn, naturally.
Dr. Jessica Durso is certified in the Webster Technique — a gentle, non-invasive approach that reduces intrauterine constraint and gives your baby the space to turn head-down on their own.
The Webster Technique
Supporting your pregnancy journey
Hearing that your baby is in a breech position can be a source of concern for many expectant parents. While some babies naturally flip on their own, others may need a little help. At Sunshine Chiropractic in West Melbourne, we offer a safe, gentle, and non-invasive approach that may help your baby achieve the optimal head-down position.
Dr. Jessica Durso is a Webster Technique certified chiropractor, specializing in this specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for families throughout Melbourne and Palm Bay. Her focus is on the relationship between the mother's pelvis and the nervous system.
Important: the Webster Technique is not about manually turning the baby. Its primary goal is to optimize the mother's pelvic function and structure. A misaligned pelvis can create intrauterine constraint — less room for the baby to move freely — which can be a contributing factor to why a baby might not turn from breech to vertex (head-down) on their own.
How a session works
How a chiropractor for breech baby concerns can help
During a Webster Technique session at our West Melbourne office, Dr. Durso carefully analyzes the sacrum and pelvis for any subluxations (misalignments).
- Pelvic balance: gentle, targeted adjustments are applied to restore proper pelvic symmetry
- Ligament relief: we address tension in the round ligament, which can become taut and contribute to uterine constraint
- Optimal environment: by releasing this tension and restoring proper pelvic alignment, we aim to create a more relaxed and accommodating environment inside the womb
This procedure can provide your baby with the space and freedom they need to turn naturally. The technique is recognized by the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) as a valuable tool for supporting a healthy pregnancy, and many mothers in the Melbourne and Palm Bay areas choose this care in the third trimester when a breech presentation is confirmed.
The Webster Technique is part of our broader gentle prenatal chiropractic care for expecting mothers.
