Homebirth Preparation Classes
The homebirth-specific group childbirth class is offered in a one day (five hour) format. Class topics are
similar to the general childbirth classes and follow the same holistic philosophies but are geared towards families
choosing to birth at home. Topics include:
informed decision making and shared trust between the client and
midwife through pregnancy and birth
pelvic dynamics and positioning of the baby for a smoother labor
movement for a healthy pregnancy and birth
mindfulness and partner exercises to build confidence and trust in oneself and each other
the physiological and emotional process of labor
understanding hospital transfer and maintaining control in the decision making process should a transfer become necessary
comfort measures
movement, massage, and counterpressure techniques for labor
labor and birthing positions
Questions and hands-on participation and movement are encouraged.
Classes are offered in a group setting at Ohm Chiropractic in South Philadelphia
or classes can be taken privately. In person class registration includes optional one year unlimited access to our self-paced course Your Empowered Homebirth at a discounted price (usually $89 but pay only $40 with your in person class registration).
Our self-paced online homebirth course covers the same topics as our in-person classes and is available on its own or at a discounted rate with in person class registration.
