Prenatal Body Work
Throughout pregnancy I coach you in one-on-one sessions of body movements that equip you physically for birth.
You will be given customized tools, lifestyle tips and movement plans to implement throughout your pregnancy.
These sessions are built to bring balance and alignment to your body. We address areas of imbalance, pain and baby mal-position, to support you in carrying your baby optimally in pregnancy and giving birth with confidence.
What to expect from body work sessions?
Pregnancy is a beautiful time of nurturing new life, but it also brings extra demands on mom's body.
​
When not supported well, that can show up as strains on the body with issues such as:​
-Body aches and pains
-Diastasis Recti
-Core weakness
-Pelvic floor tension
-Mobility restrictions
-Injury
-Prolonged labor
​
All the movements and coaching in these sessions are based on the Body Ready Method®, a comprehensive approach for childbearing women to achieve a balanced and strong body.
Body Ready Method® is based on 5 pillars:
Upper Body Mobility, Core, Pelvis, Pelvic floor and Movement Patterns.
​
Incorporating these pillars into your
movement during pregnancy can help you:
​
- Have a more efficient birth
- Significantly reduce labor time
- Minimize pregnancy aches and pains
-Overcome obstacles in pregnancy and labor that have to do with baby positioning
- Optimize recovery
- Minimize unnecessary abdominal separation and pelvic floor dysfunction
- Optimize pelvic floor responsiveness
- Work smarter not harder!
​
​
We begin with assessing your body and hearing concerns about pain or dysfunction.
Following that we schedule several balance/alignment sessions throughout pregnancy.
I create a personalized plan for you, providing you with movement and lifestyle tools that address your needs during pregnancy.
You are rewarded with a more functional, birth-equipped body!
With my coaching and support, you will build movement habits that keep your body balanced and ready for a smooth birth.
