Birth: Recovery Care Services
~ Physiologic Postpartum Care for the Birth Giver ~
("Mother Roasting" & "Postpartum Sealing")
("Mother Roasting" & "Postpartum Sealing")
Birth Recovery Care services are invaluable at ALL times, and equally (if not more so) during a crisis like COVID-19. Some of the Birth Recovery support that I offer is available remotely when circumstances prohibit in-person care. For the safety of all, especially those most vulnerable to COVID-19, Birth Recovery support care when Shelter in Place Orders are in effect is being offered as follows:
- Check-in, emotional support, and/or instruction of and support with well-being practices (EFT, Self-Breema, TRE, etc.) is offered remotely (by phone and/or video call appointments) and
- Hands-on, physical offerings (traditional physiologic postpartum care and/or Breema Bodywork) will be postponed until authorities have lifted the Shelter In Place Order.
Physiologic recovery care services are heating, integration, and sealing practices performed for Birth Givers in traditional cultures around the world. These services are intended specifically to nurture mind, body, & spirit; support physical, hormonal, energetic, and emotional wellness; and facilitate recovery from pregnancy and birthing. While they are especially recommended during the first 40 days after giving birth (starting in the first 2 weeks, if possible), they may be enjoyed anytime during or beyond the first year postpartum.
Services provided to the Birth Giver will include*:

**When learning TRE® for the first time, you should plan to spend 1.5 hour just on that and wait until the healing of any areas with stitches or other special recovery considerations.
