Aquatic Prenatal Class
Aquatic Prenatal Child Birth Education is designed to help the mother relax and prepare for labor. The buoyancy of the water in aquatic exercises reduces the effects of gravity and helps relieve joint stress, reduce swelling and decrease pain often experienced during pregnancy.
I assist the mother with relaxation and wellness techniques for her whole body. These techniques prepare the mother for labor and delivery in a hospital setting as well as delivery in water, if she chooses. This is a wonderful experience for women as their bodies transition during pregnancy.
Partner are welcome ! This enable couple to open their mind to the feelings of togetherness.
Closing eyes during the sessions helps to relax and connect with body.
I work primarily with the pelvis in the pool, which enables the mother postures, improving the alignement as the baby transitions through the delivery process. This allows the mothers-to-be to feel better during the pregnancy, delivery and after.
After delivery, I offer continued care services with Aquatic Postnatal classes.
You must complete a Prenatal Aquatics Participation Waiver to assist to the class
