  • Before your medical provider wants to start labor with all the “things”, let’s balance the tissues in the birthing person’s body and help baby find optimal fetal positioning with the space available to them!

    Through application of the Body Ready Method tools and techniques, I can support you prior to your induction to create temporary, acute releases, through specific massage, adjustments and hands on releases to minimize the need for interventions (aka adding force) to support your body’s natural ability to find greater range of motion through labor and birth.

    $225 for a :90 minute session on location at your home or place of birth. ($125 for Prenatal Prepare - Birth Coaching Graduates*)

    *There is no algorithm for guaranteeing a vaginal birth or efficient labor process and long term change and benefit is a long game strategy. Learn more in, "Prenatal Prepare - Birth Coaching", for information on a personalized BRM Assessment and birth fit plan.

“Julie is a very rare and special type of person. She has such a wealth of knowledge in so many different arenas that create a perfect balance for the person who will guide you through your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum time. From personalized weekly yoga sessions, thoughtful and meaningful conversations, beyond delicious cooking, and deeply relaxing massages, Julie takes care of all the little things that no one is thinking about with endless understanding and a non-judgmental demeanor. I could not have gone through this experience without her.

Before having my first child, I had no idea how much support the mother needs when the focus is usually on the baby. Julie made sure all of my needs were met as a birth expert, mother, and loving caretaker. I felt back to myself earlier than I ever could have imagined. I thank Julie endlessly for all she has given me.”
