2 DAY PREGNANCY COURSE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THERAPISTS

Pregnancy Course for 2012

Approved by the Complementary Therapists Association (CThA)

Cost £225 - Inclusive of Course Material, Assessment & Certification plus the use of carrier oil, massage couches and other aids - (beanbags, mats)

This course has been developed specifically for therapists interested in working with pregnant and postnatal women. As qualified midwives we have designed it from a midwifery perspective, but have ensured that the content of the course has relevance for the therapist so they can work confidently and safely with women during pregnancy and following birth.

Mary McNabb, who is also a midwife and an expert in the neuroendocrine responses to pregnancy and childbirth has advised on the theoretical content of the course, making sure we keep abreast of current developments. Theoretical and practical issues will be discussed and taught including safe positions, suggested techniques, use of alternative equipment and other legal/professional issues.

Assessment

Each participant is expected to complete a case study/reflection related to what is learnt on the course.

Following successful completion of the course and case study, students will be awarded a Childbirth Essentials certificate

Maximum of 16 per course.
