Skeleto-Muscular Resetting After Birth

In the process of birth, our bodies open fully, both from our soft tissue (dilation of the uterus) as well as our bones (bony pelvis). After birth, there is a unique opportunity to provide deep balance to the whole body - from muscles to ligament, from fascia to our very bones - while the relaxing hormone levels are still at their peak. This course delves into how to help restore full balance after birth, for improved health and wellbeing for daily life, and for a healthier future pregnancy and birth.
