Learn practical, hands-on comfort skills to support the birthing person through labor. This interactive session teaches expectant parents and all birth partners simple, evidence-informed techniques including positioning, counter-pressure, massage, breath coaching, temperature therapy, and supportive touch to reduce pain and promote relaxation.
We’ll practice timing and responding to contractions, safe ways to assist movement and positioning, and how to create a calm environment that honors the birthing person’s preferences. Ideal for partners, family members, and any support person who plans to be in the delivery room.
