My mission as a holistic healthcare practitioner is to help you achieve the healthiest, most appropriate pregnancy and birth for you and your family. I provide the most up-to-date and pertinent information I have available to help you make the choices that are best for you and your family.
The definitions of health and well-being for each person are just as unique as each family. Pregnancy and childbirth is a normal, natural and unique part of life. I can assist you and your family in decreasing the discomfort both physical and emotional that often accompany this process. I often treat mothers, fathers, siblings and grandparents at different stages of the birthing process.
I want you to feel comfortable asking any and all questions you may have regarding your health and the health of your baby. We are working together to help you meet your goals.
The treatments I offer are a combination of my training in acupuncture, herbology , homeopathy, massage therapy, childbirth education and labor assistance. I will do my best to let you know what I feel would be the most efficacious treatment strategy while staying within your comfort zone.
Having a professional labor assistant, or Doula with you during labor has been shown to significantly improve birth outcomes and decrease the medical intervention rate. Whether you are planning a medicated or unmedicated birth this can be a tremendous help. As a Doula my role is that of emotional, physical and information support for you as the mother and your partner.
Before labor begins I meet with mothers and their partners to discuss their goals and ideas for the birth. We put together a generalized plan for the labor. Then during labor through the use of massage, positioning, and coping techniques we work together to help you and your baby have the best experience possible. Please feel free to call for more information about Doula services or see www . DONA .org
$60 per treatment with packages available for multiple treatments and prenatal care.
