Music Therapy Assisted Childbirth
I am trained in Sound BirthingTM, which means, I work with you to have music that will support you through the phases of birth. I work with your birthing partner or doula to know when to use certain music during the birthing process.
The music helps with pain management, increases stamina, focus on the breath, decrease anxiety and provides a nurturing environment for your newborn to be born into. It supports your physical and emotional needs.
I can be with you through the entire birthing process or work with you on developing music for the experience, in which your partner will be trained on how to use the music.
Womb Song
The womb song is a special bonding experience, where you can create the words you want to share with baby- and I help you turn it into a song.
When using the song while baby is in utero, baby will become more familiar with your voice. Baby will be able to recognize the melody when they are born, which will help them feel secure and safe in their new environment.
What do services look like?
The first step is scheduling a consultation call, where we can discuss what you are looking for.
We will meet 2-3 times during pregnancy to work on the sound birthing plan as well as learn resources that will help you.
During our sessions together, I will train your doula or birthing partner on how and when to use certain music so you can be supported.
Why consider it?
Using music therapy during birth has shown a significant decrease in anxiety and overall discomfort. It has helped decrease the need for pain medication and helped with feeling positive about the birth experience overall.
