Prenatal Chiropractic
Safe, gentle chiropractic care for expectant mothers using the Webster Technique to reduce back pain, optimize pelvic alignment, and support a healthy pregnancy.
Prenatal Chiropractic Care in Lubbock, TX
Pregnancy is one of the most transformative experiences in a woman's life — and one of the most physically demanding. As your body changes to accommodate a growing baby, your center of gravity shifts, your ligaments loosen, your pelvis widens, and your spine faces new mechanical stresses. These changes can lead to significant back pain, pelvic discomfort, round ligament pain, sciatica, and postural challenges that affect daily life.
Back 2 Health Chiropractic in Lubbock, TX offers safe, gentle prenatal chiropractic care designed specifically for expectant mothers. Dr. Brett Chavez, D.C. is trained in the Webster Technique — a specific chiropractic protocol recognized by the American Pregnancy Association for use during pregnancy — to help you stay comfortable, active, and healthy throughout every trimester.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe During Pregnancy?
Yes — when provided by a trained chiropractor, chiropractic care is considered safe and beneficial throughout all stages of a healthy pregnancy. The American Pregnancy Association and the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) both recognize the benefits of chiropractic care for expectant mothers.
Dr. Chavez uses a special adjusting table that accommodates a growing belly, eliminating the need for you to lie flat on your stomach. All techniques used during prenatal care are gentle, low-force, and adapted for the unique needs of a pregnant body.

The Webster Technique
The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and adjustment designed to reduce sacral misalignment and pelvic imbalance in pregnant patients. By addressing the sacrum and the muscles and ligaments that support it, this technique:
- Reduces tension on the round ligaments and uterosacral ligaments
- Optimizes pelvic alignment and symmetry
- May create more room in the uterus (intrauterine constraint)
- Supports the baby's ability to move into the optimal head-down position
- Reduces low back pain, hip pain, and pelvic girdle pain
The Webster Technique is not a "baby turning" technique — it is a specific adjustment to balance the pelvis and reduce soft tissue tension, which may allow the baby to naturally assume an optimal position.
Benefits of Prenatal Chiropractic Care
Pregnant patients at Back 2 Health Chiropractic regularly report:
- Reduced low back and hip pain — one of the most common benefits of prenatal chiropractic care
- Improved pelvic alignment — supporting comfort and optimal positioning as delivery approaches
- Relief from sciatica — the shifting of the pelvis during pregnancy often compresses the sciatic nerve, causing pain that radiates into the buttocks and legs
- Better sleep — reduced pain and muscle tension means better rest for both mother and baby
- Shorter labor times — some research suggests that women who received regular chiropractic care during pregnancy experience shorter labor durations
- Reduced need for interventions — by supporting optimal pelvic mechanics, prenatal chiropractic may reduce the likelihood of needing interventions during delivery

What to Expect During Prenatal Chiropractic Visits
Your comfort is our absolute priority at every visit. We use specialized pregnancy pillows and positioning supports to make sure you are comfortable throughout your session. Adjustments are performed with modified, low-force techniques appropriate for each trimester.
At your first visit, Dr. Chavez will review your obstetric history, current symptoms, and any guidance provided by your OB or midwife. He maintains open communication with your healthcare team to ensure your care is coordinated and safe.
Postnatal Care
Chiropractic care doesn't stop at delivery. Labor and delivery — whether vaginal or cesarean — place significant forces on the spine and pelvis. Many mothers experience back pain, pelvic instability, and posture issues in the weeks and months after giving birth, especially with the physical demands of nursing and caring for a newborn. Dr. Chavez offers postpartum chiropractic care to help new mothers recover, heal, and return to full function.
We also offer pediatric chiropractic care for your newborn, infant, and growing child.
