We are both Aussie birthworkers who are excited to offer this two-day workshop to to the far north (where Jenny grew up!). We welcome midwives, doulas, birth educators, chiropractors, doctors, osteopaths, physiotherapists, pregnancy bodyworkers, acupuncturists, prenatal yoga instructors, myo-fascial therapists, pregnant women, and alternative care-providers who assist women in pregnancy and childbirth.
The workshop will be filled with easy-to-integrate information, and hands-on practice. We intend to help participants feel confident in how to apply the Spinning Babies®️ approach, so that they can better help birthing families in the community, or in clinical and hospital settings.
