Somatic Bodywork with your Spinning Babies Aware bodywork practitioner

Gentle, effective myofascial bodywork session releases muscles, ligaments, and fascia if:

• you’ve having aches and pains in your pregnancy.
• you have had a history of recurring pain in your back or hips, even before becoming pregnant.
• you want to be assured that your body is in the best balance & alignment as you approach birth.
• you are 32+ weeks, and your baby is in a difficult position.
• you had a prior difficult birth that was very long, or baby got stuck.
• you have done Spinning Babies home activities for a week and you still feel muscle discomfort anywhere around your belly, hips, legs, torso, back, neck or head.

Catherine’s training includes Gina Kirby’s use of the rebozo for childbearing women, who carries on the lineage of Central American midwives’ invaluable traditional practices. See full credentials.

Personalized Sessions

Spinning Babies – MAP® alignment session

Spinning Babies MAP (Maternal Assessment Protocol) sessions provide specific guidance for pregnant women to relieve pain and to open pelvic space for your baby. Home program activities will enable you to bring your body into alignment and help your baby come into a good position. May be combined with myofascial therapy bodywork. Recommended at 32 weeks.

Spinning Babies – Breech balancing bodywork session

If your baby is breech, arrange a special session for couples or for a woman and her support person. Practice specialized partner and solo activities to make space for baby to move into a head down position. Take home a comprehensive workbook for your home program. Recommended at 32 weeks.

Spinning Babies Belly mapping session

In a Spinning Babies belly mapping session during the final months of your pregnancy, we will identify the position of your baby through your own experiences of his or her movement. We will draw a simple sketch of your baby on your belly. And we’ll take photos as a keepsake.
