LONDONDERRY, NH – Healing Hands Chiropractic, A Family Wellness Center in Londonderry, NH announces additional prenatal education services. Healing Hands’ prenatal education program now offers two distinct classes: Celebrating Your Pregnancy, for women in their first or second trimester along with their partners; and Honoring Your Birth, for women in their third trimester and their birth partners.
The Honoring Your Birth series is based on a philosophy called “woman-centered birth,” in which the needs and desires of the laboring mother are the foundation of her perinatal care. Class material is based on the ALACE childbirth education curriculum, which emphasizes informed decision-making and a holistic approach to childbearing. Topics covered in this series include:
- Physiology of normal birth
- Understanding medical interventions / Informed decision-making
- Coping methods for pain, both natural and medical
- Positions for labor and birth
- Newborn appearance, behavior and concerns
- Postpartum family life
- Breastfeeding & attachment parenting
Healing Hands Chiropractic offers some of the only classes in the greater Manchester and Nashua areas that are not affiliated with a specific hospital. This independence allows them to work for you, the parent, rather than an institution. While some hospital-sponsored birth classes may cost a bit less, parents can benefit significantly from the independent nature of these classes.
Classes are available in weekday evening or Saturday afternoon formats. The cost for either series is currently discounted to $99 per family (regularly $150). Upcoming class dates are Wednesdays, April 8th through May 6th, 6:30-8:30 pm; and Saturdays, April 18th and 25th from 12-5 pm.
