SUPPORT FOR THE CHILDBEARING YEAR AND BEYOND

HORMONE BALANCE SESSION

FERTILITY ACUPUNCTURE

PREGNANCY ACUPUNCTURE

FETAL POSITIONING (BREECH)

Baby is gently encouraged to move into a head-down position ideal for labor. Utilizing my experience as a mom, doula, and acupuncturist, I combine a series of Spinning Baby based exercises, inversions, acupuncture, moxibustion, and ligament and fascia release to create more room to help baby move into an optimal position. You will go home with your own moxa and instructions. This is a very effective combination to help turn babies between 32-34 weeks, but it can be implemented at any time before birth. THE EARLIER THE BETTER for best results. Great for prior to an external version, and can be repeated as needed.

BIRTH PREPARATION COMBINATION

CHILDBIRTH PREPARATION CLASS

BIRTH DOULA PACKAGE

Custom on-call labor support. This includes one 3 hour birth planning visit (in the comfort of your home), two acupuncture birth preparation sessions, unlimited telephone support, on-call, hands-on support for up to 24 hours during labor and birth, and one postpartum house call with acupuncture for both parent and child, if desired. Acupuncture, laser acupuncture, moxibustion, rebozo work, massage, cupping, aromatherapy, and e-stim included during labor, if desired, at no additional cost. Adding gift donations to your baby shower wish list is a great way to pay for a doula, and it can often be reimbursed by FSA or HSA.

PLACENTA PRINTS/BIRTH ART

THERAPEUTIC ART MAKING

BLESSING CEREMONY

INFANT LOSS DOULA

Discovering that stillbirth is imminent is one of the most devastating experiences a mother can have. I am available for on-call support in the home or hospital and offer acupuncture and herbal pain relief, grief support, and the coordination of services and rituals to honor your baby. I can gently and respectfully take photographs, footprints, or hair clippings and beautifully prepare them for you to cherish. Additionally, you may choose to save your placenta or umbilical cord, and I can make art for you to treasure that honors the memory of your baby. I can also help facilitate the donation of breastmilk or assist you in the process of drying up your milk supply. In the case of a stillborn child or SIDS death, the first 3 hours of care are completely FREE to mothers who are established patients (within the first month following the death of their child and within 5 miles of 14216). Pricing is for 3 hours and 100 dollars for each subsequent hour. Travel more than 5 miles outside 14216 is additional.
