Webster Certified Chiropractor Greer SC

At Mountain Movement Chiropractic & Natural Health, we believe pregnancy is one of the most extraordinary physical journeys a woman’s body will ever experience. But with that transformation comes rapid change—new movement patterns, shifting posture, hormonal fluctuations, and often, discomfort that can make those sacred months feel like a struggle.

That’s where Webster Certified Chiropractic Care steps in—and why more expecting moms in Greer, SC and across the Upstate are turning to Dr. Michael Day for trusted, safe prenatal support.

Why Pregnant Women Choose Chiropractic Care

Pregnancy is miraculous—but let’s be honest, it can also be physically demanding. As your baby grows, your center of gravity shifts, your ligaments loosen, and your posture evolves in ways that can leave you sore, stiff, and off balance.

That’s why more moms are turning to chiropractic care as a natural, drug-free solution to ease discomfort and support a healthier, more aligned pregnancy.

Common Pregnancy Challenges We Address

At Mountain Movement Chiropractic, we frequently help expecting moms struggling with:

• Low back pain and sciatica from postural strain and pelvic tilt
• Pelvic pain and round ligament tension as the uterus expands
• Breech or posterior fetal positions that may be influenced by pelvic misalignment
• Sleep issues and trouble getting comfortable
• Shoulder, neck, and posture strain from changing body mechanics

These are not just “normal parts of pregnancy”—they’re signals that your body is asking for support.

Restoring Balance with Chiropractic Care

Your pelvis, spine, and nervous system form the foundation of your pregnancy health. When everything is aligned and moving properly:

• Your body adapts better to the demands of pregnancy
• Tension in the ligaments and uterus decreases
• Your baby has more room to move and settle into an ideal head-down position

Webster Certified chiropractic adjustments are uniquely designed to restore this balance—gently, safely, and effectively.

Benefits for Both Mom and Baby

Regular chiropractic care during pregnancy has been shown to:

• Reduce labor time and the need for interventions
• Improve fetal positioning by optimizing pelvic space
• Ease discomfort and enhance mobility
• Support a more comfortable postpartum recovery

At Mountain Movement, we view prenatal care as a collaboration between mom, baby, and chiropractor—all working together to make this journey as strong, aligned, and empowered as possible.

The Webster Technique Explained

When it comes to prenatal chiropractic care, not all techniques are created equal. The Webster Technique stands out as the gold standard—specifically designed to meet the needs of the pregnant body with precision, gentleness, and purpose.

A Gentle, Non-Invasive Approach for Expecting Mothers

Unlike traditional chiropractic adjustments that may involve forceful or high-velocity movements, the Webster Technique is incredibly gentle and non-invasive. Every adjustment is done with mom and baby in mind—comfortable, safe, and tailored to your trimester and body changes.

There are no twists, no cracking sounds, and no rushing. Each visit is calm, focused, and supportive of your natural rhythms.

Targeting the Sacrum and Round Ligaments

The Webster Technique focuses on two key areas:

• The sacrum, the triangular bone at the base of the spine, which plays a major role in pelvic alignment.
• The round ligaments, which support the uterus and can tighten as the baby grows.

When the sacrum is misaligned or the round ligaments are restricted, the result can be imbalanced pelvic movement, uterine tension, and less-than-ideal space for the baby to move. By gently restoring alignment and releasing tension, the Webster Technique promotes a balanced, open environment for both mom and baby.

Not a Baby-Turning Technique—but It Helps

It’s important to understand that Webster is not a direct method to turn a breech baby. Instead, it clears the path—removing the muscular and skeletal roadblocks that may be keeping baby from getting into the right position on their own.

Many women who receive Webster care in the third trimester experience:

• Baby moving into a head-down (vertex) position
• More room in the belly
• Less discomfort when walking, sitting, or sleeping

It’s one of the safest, most natural ways to support optimal fetal positioning—without pressure, fear, or intervention.

Certified by the ICPA

Dr. Michael Day is a proud Webster Certified Chiropractor through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). This certification means he has completed extensive training specifically focused on prenatal anatomy, biomechanics, and safety.

You're not just getting a chiropractor—you’re getting a provider who has committed to the highest standards of care for pregnant women and their babies.

Why Mountain Movement Is Different

At Mountain Movement Chiropractic & Natural Health, we believe prenatal care should be more than just clinical—it should be personal, peaceful, and purpose-driven. From the way we assess your movement to the way we speak into your journey as a mother, everything we do is designed to help you feel supported, strong, and seen.

Dr. Day’s Unique Approach: Faith-Driven, Sports-Trained, Functionally Focused

Dr. Michael Day brings a rare blend of backgrounds to his prenatal patients. As a former sports chiropractor with advanced training in functional movement, and someone whose own health journey was deeply transformative, Dr. Day leads with both clinical expertise and compassionate care.

The Day Method: A Complete Prenatal Framework

What sets Mountain Movement apart is our integration of The Day Method, a proprietary system developed by Dr. Day that includes:

• Prenatal Movement Pattern Analysis – Understanding how your body adapts week by week
• Fascia Mapping – Identifying areas of tension or restriction in the soft tissue that may be limiting your comfort or the baby’s position
• Nervous System Reset Techniques – Calming overactive muscle groups and improving communication between your brain and body

When combined with the Webster Technique, this creates a complete, pregnancy-specific care plan that evolves with you—from the first trimester to your postpartum recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know choosing prenatal chiropractic care is a big decision, and you deserve answers that are clear, honest, and reassuring. Here are some of the most common questions we get from expecting moms in Greer, SC and surrounding areas:

Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?

Yes—when provided by a trained and Webster Certified chiropractor, prenatal chiropractic care is extremely safe and gentle. In fact, many women find it to be one of the most effective, drug-free ways to manage pregnancy discomfort and prepare for birth.

Dr. Michael Day uses light, specific techniques tailored to your trimester and comfort level. No cracking, no forceful adjustments—just careful support for your changing body.

How soon in pregnancy can I start chiropractic care?

You can start as early as your first trimester, and many moms do! Early care helps your body adapt to postural shifts, ease early discomfort, and maintain pelvic balance from the start.

The earlier we support your alignment and nervous system, the better your body can handle the growing demands of pregnancy—and the smoother your delivery may be.

Can the Webster Technique help with breech positioning?

While the Webster Technique does not manually turn babies, it is designed to help your pelvis and soft tissues create optimal space for baby to turn naturally. Many moms have seen breech babies shift to head-down after just a few visits.

By reducing tension in the uterus and restoring pelvic symmetry, we remove common restrictions that may be preventing baby from assuming the best position.

Do you coordinate with midwives and OBs?

Absolutely. We value open communication and collaboration. Many of our patients are referred by midwives, doulas, and OBs throughout the Upstate. We’re happy to coordinate your care and provide notes or updates upon request—because your birth team should work together to support you and your baby.
