Frequently asked questions

Is chiropractic safe during pregnancy?

Absolutely! Chiropractic care is extremely safe and we take extra care of our patients during their pregnancies. We use gentle modified techniques to give the best quality care, with less force or discomfort.



Can I still lay on your tables, even though I'm pregnant?

What is the Webster Technique?

The official description of the Webster Technique: "The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/ SI joint dysfunction. In doing so, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is facilitated." This technique, developd by Dr. Larry Webster, is an adjustment to the tailbone and pelvis that provides balance to the ligaments and symmetry to the pelvis. As this happens, many babies that are in a breech or transverse position, will return to the cephalic position. Dr. Murdock is proud to hold a certification in this technique and has helped many women in our community.
