Postpartum Rehabilitation/ Doula Care
Giving birth is a special time filled with new experiences. While the changes to a woman’s body develop gradually as the baby grows and moves within her, these effects upon the mother’s body can impact her ability to perform daily tasks with comfort. Postpartum rehabilitation serves to address those concerns and to restore comfort and relative ease.

Settle into Rest
Give a Voice to Your Feelings
As joyful and intimate as the birth of a baby can be, the parents may experience increased stress related to irregular rest and sleep patterns. Loss of a child through miscarriage or stillbirth can traumatically impact a couple’s relationship. Cultural expectations about parenting roles can be contrary to the parents’ current needs for balance between parenting and self care. Parenting styles differ. Mother’s changes in hormone levels are known to impact her mood levels, potentially experienced as postpartum depression. Full Spectrum Healing is specially trained to address these concerns, and to provide effective strategies.
