What happens during a meeting?
I often hear that birthing is comparable to running a marathon – without having trained for it! I’m not sure that’s accurate, but definitely the best you can do is preparing yourself for it! But what does it mean and how can I help?
I can help you prepare mentally, giving you information about the physiology of birth, the different options available in Amsterdam and answering all of your questions. I can also help you writing your birthplan.
I can help you prepare emotionally through visualisation and breathing exercises, and helping you coming up with your own affirmations.
I can help you prepare physically through yoga to feel strong and in tune with your body; Spinning Babies to help your body and your baby to achieve optimal alignment; and acupuncture to make the transitions between the different birthing phases as soft as possible.
I can help you and your partner by teaching you natural methods to deal with contractions and feel like a team: acupressure points, massages, positions and movements, aromatherapy, rebozo.
Finally I can lend you books, rebozos, yoga mats, gym balls, TENS machine according to their availability.
Using these ideas as a base, your appointments will be customised according to your personal needs and style.
