About the event
This class is designed to teach you and your birth support person essential massage techniques for pain relief during labor. You will learn about key trigger points that help alleviate pain, how to use touch to promote the release of happy hormones, and areas to avoid in order to prevent stimulating labor prematurely. We will also explore pregnancy massage and how these techniques can be continued at home to ease discomfort during pregnancy. Not only will you learn these techniques, but you’ll also have the chance to experience them and tailor your touch to what feels best for you. You’ll leave with practical tools, including pamphlets and visual cards that help you affirm and visualize the type of birth you want. These beautiful, hand-drawn illustrations by Australian artist Kepsibel Hill will be yours to take home as reminders of the nurturing, empowering experience you’ve created for your birth journey.
