The Technique Explained
What Is the Webster Technique?
The Webster Technique is a pregnancy-specific chiropractic analysis developed by Dr. Larry Webster. Dr. Devin Reissing and Dr. Jeremy Cerha use their Webster training to assess patients individually and explain how chiropractic care may fit alongside prenatal care.
The assessment considers the pelvis, related soft tissues, the patient’s history, and current comfort concerns. It is not an obstetric procedure, it does not turn a baby, and it does not replace evaluation or treatment by an OB or midwife.
If chiropractic care is appropriate, the doctors explain the recommended technique, positioning, and goals before treatment. They also encourage patients to keep their prenatal care team involved in decisions about pregnancy and birth.
Patients ask about Webster care at different points in pregnancy. The timing and frequency of any chiropractic care should be based on an individual assessment and the wider prenatal plan.

Why It Matters
A Thoughtful Part of Prenatal Support
Pregnancy involves substantial physical change. Back, hip, and pelvic comfort can shift as your body adapts. Those concerns deserve a thoughtful conversation with the clinicians best positioned to guide your prenatal care.
Your OB or midwife is the right source for questions about fetal presentation, labor, delivery, and pregnancy complications. Chiropractic care is not a substitute for obstetric evaluation or treatment.
If you are considering chiropractic care, we can explain our assessment process and coordinate, with your permission, with the prenatal professionals already supporting you.

Real Results from Knoxville Moms
"Seeing the doctors at Reissing Health was one of the absolute best ways to begin my pregnancy journey as a new mama! I knew little about the value of chiropractic when I began, but I have since come to understand how much chiro care supported me not only during pregnancy but also throughout my postpartum healing and beyond."

"I started back to chiropractic care a few weeks ago to help prepare for labor and deal with some pregnancy pain. Y'all! I can't tell you how different I feel with just five adjustments. Today driving to work my hips were awful and after my morning adjustment I feel like a new woman!"
