What do you provide with Postpartum Care?

  • Relief from swelling & Pain: A weekly massage is recommended the first 6 weeks after the birth. In the first postpartum massage, I focus on immediate pain relief and relieving tension. In follow up postpartum massages, I also focus on the neck, chest and shoulders which can get achey from nursing and carrying baby, and I align the uterus after your done bleeding and I “close” your hips.
  • I can include instructions for Vaginal steam starting day 3 postpartum, if you don't have an infection or a C-section. I will give you instructions for doing them on your own. You can steam every other day the first week, to help your uterus heal, as well as, speed the process of clearing out the discharge.
  • Belly Binding: I can give you instructions for the first 6 weeks postpartum. Binding is not just for maintaining your figure, it has multiple health benefits.
  • Uterus Lift & Alignment: to speed uterine healing and prevent/ improve prolapse and malposition of uterus which could negatively affect menstrual cycles and digestion/ elimination. Contraindications: an IUD, an infection in your pelvis, or are you are 🩸 menstruating.
  • Exercise Guidelines: initially, I will instruct you on how to properly perform pelvic floor exercises & abdominal core exercise and give guidelines for the first 2 years postpartum

Care after miscarriage/ loss

I’ve personally experienced multiple miscarriages, and I’ve worked with women who have had stillbirths. After care depends on how far along you were in the pregnancy. Text me any questions and we can arrange a phone conversation ❤️
