Prenatal Body Balance

The Body Ready Method

Birth is a physiological process and BRM and I believe that the body is wise. However, that wisdom is often lost in the modern world. Using the law of specificity, BRM trains the body specifically for the task at hand: pregnancy, birth, and recovery. Pregnancy and birth are immense physiological processes that, ideally, should be specifically supported rather than simply modifying one’s regular routine.

​

At BRM, we believe that all birthing people deserve to be offered positional and hands on release work. We believe that these low risk, easily accessible tools (for core, pelvic floor, upper body mobility, pelvis and body alignment/movement pattern) can encourage comfort and progress and that these tools can oftentimes eliminate the need for medical interventions that come with higher risk. This can not only create greater satisfaction and empowerment in birth, it can also minimize childbirth related injuries and encourage a smoother recovery and postpartum transition.

​

The Body Ready Method is an approach to using whole body functional tools with the perinatal population that can help with:

  • Body balancing to help baby find their best position

  • Prenatal aches and pains

  • Pelvic floor dysfunction

  • Core support to minimize issues with abdominal separation and diastasis recti

  • A more efficient birth by optimizing the body during pregnancy

  • A smoother postpartum recovery

​

Why work with a BRM pro?

Body Ready Method professionals understand, deeply, how to support the pregnant body to find resilience, strength, and mobility. They are equipped to help you prepare for a more functional pregnancy and a more efficient birthing process. Moreover, these professionals are experts in pelvic mechanics and understand what to do during every stage of the birthing process to encourage progress and optimize balanced space in the pelvis and surrounding soft tissues.

​

Who should hire a BRM pro?

  • An individual who is pregnant and wanting to prepare their body for birth

  • Somebody who has had previously difficult birth experiences and desires to be more proactive and find more support for their next pregnancy and birth.

  • An individual who is pregnant and worried about their core, diastasis recti, pelvic floor function, or other body issues.

  • Anybody who is pregnant and looking for a more holistic way to remain strong, functional and resilient through the entire journey.

  • Those who value function over fitness. BRMSM is so much more than modified-for-pregnancy exercise and we value function over appearance.

​

The Body Ready Method empowers expecting and birthing folks to take control of the controllables of prenatal preparation and birth support. The BRM approach allows them to feel resilient and strong in their bodies and prepared for the incredible journey through birth, regardless of the type of birth they are planning or end up having.

​

​

During our first meeting we'll do an initial assessment, talk about your why; past experiences and birth(s), current pain or dysfunctions; identify what is tight, weak and/or overworked in the pelvic floor, pelvis, core and upper body; recognize how daily movement patterns improve function and prepare for birth and talk about your goals and desires to ensure you are receiving a well rounded plan of action.​

​​

Each session we'll begin with checking-in to ensure your needs and answer any questions that you may have. Together, we'll practice gentle exercises and breathing techniques that are tailored specifically to you and can be incorporated into your daily life. Additionally, we'll dive into movements and positions that can be added to your "tool box" to support you, and your support person, during your labor and delivery journey. 

We'll end each session with a calm and relaxing resting phase, to connect with your baby, body and mind.

​

We will meet up again during the week of your guess date for an end-of-pregnancy session. During this session we do some exercises and movements to help release tension in your body and relax your mind (Partners and/or support person welcome to join)

​

My intention is that after each session you feel more empowered, balanced and strong in your body and mind, throughout your pregnancy, birth and recovery time.
