Prenatal Chiropractic in Aurora, CO: Webster Technique for a Comfortable Pregnancy
Dr. Yahdi Cotto

Prenatal Chiropractic in Aurora, CO
Pregnancy reshapes the spine and pelvis in a matter of weeks. Increased ligament laxity, a shifting center of gravity, and a growing uterus place new demands on the lumbar spine, sacrum, and pelvic floor. At Spine By Design Studio in Aurora, CO, Dr. Yahdi Cotto provides Webster Technique and gentle prenatal adjustments designed to keep expectant mothers comfortable and well-aligned through every trimester.
Why pelvic balance matters in pregnancy
When the pelvis is rotated or torsioned, intrauterine constraint can develop, contributing to:
- Low back, hip, and sacroiliac pain
- Sciatic-style leg pain
- Round ligament discomfort
- Sub-optimal fetal positioning later in pregnancy
The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment of the sacrum and surrounding soft tissue designed to reduce sacral torsion and balance pelvic muscles and ligaments. It is one of the most widely used chiropractic protocols for pregnant patients.
