  • Informed and Intuitive Preparation for Parents. A weekend series of 2 day 5-hour classes.

    Our childbirth classes are designed for parents choosing to deliver at home or in a birth center. Birthing is unique, unpredictable, and intensely personal. Our curriculum honors this reality by helping you become informed and in touch with your own intuition; it prepares you to be in sync with your partner, doula, and midwife, and prepares you for the best birth possible. 

  • Enhance your pregnancy with guidance to key supplements to support mama and baby. 

    * prenatal vitamins

    * probiotics

    * fish oil

    * vitamin D

  • Continuing support after birth is just as important as prenatal care.  Birthing with CMC ensures you and your baby are cared for together through 2 months postpartum.

    * placenta encapsulation

    * specialized lactation support with an initial visit in either the birth center or at home

    * additional in-office visits with a lactation consultant

  • Water birth, also known as hydrotherapy, offers several potential benefits for both the mother and baby. 

    Benefits for the Mother: 

    • Reduced pain

    • Shorter labor

    • Less need for pain medication

    • Reduced perineal trauma

    • Increased sense of control

    • Enhanced satisfaction with the birth experience

    Benefits for the Baby: 

    • Smooth transition from womb to world

    • Reduced stress

      We offer water birth options for both birth center and home births

  • Nitrous oxide, often called "laughing gas," is a pain relief option that can aid during labor. It's a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen that is inhaled through a mouth piece. While not as potent as an epidural, it can help reduce pain and anxiety during labor and allows the birthing person to remain mobile. 

  • Placenta Encapsulation is the process of breaking down the tissue of your placenta through cleaning then dehydrating the tissue before turning it into a powder. The powder is then filled into capsules for easy dosing and convenience. There are many benefits to placenta encapsulation including but not limited to; easing symptoms of the baby blues, increased milk production, increased energy, restoration of iron levels after birth, and mood stabilization. 

  • Holistic Pelvic Care™ is an intravaginal massage that utilizes myofascial trigger point release and breath work with the goal of balancing the muscle tone of the pelvic floor and reconnecting the woman with her center. Assists with physical complaints like incontinence, pain with intercourse, prolapse, general discomfort, sense of fullness, diastasis, back pain, inability to connect to the muscles, among others.

    If you have Naturopathic coverage, this can be billed to your insurance. Please inquire with our billing specialist for further details.
