As an expectant mother, you naturally want to give your baby the best possible start in life. One concern that many parents-to-be aren’t aware of is in-utero constraint, a condition that can affect your baby’s positioning and development during pregnancy.
What Is In-Utero Constraint?
In-utero constraint occurs when external forces limit your baby’s natural movement within the uterus. This restriction can stem from tight or misaligned ligaments and muscles, uterine abnormalities, or other factors that reduce the space available for your growing baby.
When movement is restricted, your little one may not achieve the optimal head down position for birth, potentially leading to breech presentation or other positioning challenges.
In some cases, prolonged constraint can contribute to structural concerns such as plagiocephaly (flattened head shape) or hip dislocation that may require attention after birth.

The good news? Chiropractic care during pregnancy offers a safe, natural approach to addressing these concerns. The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic adjustment designed to reduce stress on the pelvis and surrounding ligaments, creating a more balanced environment for your baby.
