What is an Encourage Labor Session?

 

If you are within two weeks of your due date, you may schedule an Encourage Labor Session. This is a 90 minute session which combines prenatal massage and specific reflexology points (that we avoid until this point in pregnancy) which help to stimulate the uterus and the endocrine system.  I also use a special massage oil with essential oils that help stimulate the onset of labor.

 

Can you guarantee that I will go into labor if I get an Encourage Labor Session?

 

If I could guarantee you that I had a non-chemical way to induce labor, there would be a line of pregnant women outside of my office and around the block! 

Labor begins either when the baby sends a chemical signal to the mother's brain to begin labor, or when a woman receives a dose of Pitocin (oxytocin) to induce labor.

Anyone who has experienced an induction with Pitocin will tell you that it is INTENSE.

The Encourage Labor Session combines several elements that set the stage for labor and encourage its onset.  Think of it as a prenatal "sound check", followed by a relaxing massage, before the concert.

And keep in mind, no woman has ever said, "I really regret getting a massage shortly before doing the most physically demanding thing I have ever done in my life."

 

The Encourage Labor Session is $185/90 minutes.

 

Gift certificates are available for The Encourage Labor Session.
