At 32 years old and pregnant with her third baby, Carolyn came to us carrying more than just the physical changes of pregnancy. After two difficult births, she was overwhelmed with anxiety about labor and had recently learned that her baby was in the breech position. She was also dealing with vertigo, neck and back pain, pelvic pain, and constant TMJ tension. Some days, the only thing that gave her any relief was lying down and resting.
With a scheduled induction already on the calendar, Carolyn wanted to know if there was anything she could do to help her body prepare for birth naturally.
After evaluating her nervous system, we found significant tension and imbalance through her pelvis, sacrum, and upper neck. Her INSiGHT scans also showed that her nervous system was under a great deal of stress and having a hard time adapting.
We created a personalized care plan using the Webster Technique to help improve pelvic balance and support healthy nervous system function throughout the rest of her pregnancy.
Over the next several weeks, Carolyn experienced incredible changes. Her pain resolved, her vertigo improved, her blood pressure returned to a healthy range, and the anxiety she had been carrying into this pregnancy began to fade. Follow-up scans showed her nervous system functioning much more efficiently, and even more exciting, her baby naturally turned head down. She was able to cancel the induction she had scheduled out of fear and move forward with greater confidence in her body.
Testimonial: “I came in exhausted and honestly terrified about how my birth was going to go. I left feeling like myself again, calm, out of pain, and actually excited to meet my baby. It felt like my body finally had the chance to do what it needed to do.”
