Mommy & Me Dance & Play Time
This class is a movement class designed to get Momma and Baby moving together. Bonding occurs non-verbally in infants and toddlers and it is amazing how much we can communicate and connect with our children through dance and play. Classes will highlight a movement theme each week, children will have time to play with eachother, and parents will have time to chat. Siblings are welcome, $5 per additional child.

What are separated abs?
 A common condition known as diastasis recti, separated abs are often left undiagnosed. Separated Abs can lead to lower back pain, poor and painful posture, and the dreaded "Mummy Tummy" because the ab muscles are unable to do their job.

Services

Rolfing
After pregnancy many women struggle to "get their body back," and to "feel like themselves again." During pregnancy and birth, muscles and bones move to new places taking on new shapes in response to your baby's growth and your experience of labor. For instance, the hips and ribs expand and the abdominal muscles move towards the sides of your stomach. After birth, you are constantly nursing, holding, and hugging your new baby, often with an exhausted body. Structural Integration work helps educate your muscles back into place and your total body back to alignment. The work brings comfort and awareness to your movement patterns so that you can rock and hold your new baby in a way that is healthy for both of your bodies.

Healing the Postpartum Belly:
Manual techniques for split abdominals
Allison's sessions utilize gentle and comfortable techniques that help 're-stitch' the addomen back together after pregnancy and birth. Allison teaches women these techniques so they can continue to work on their own bellies accelerating the process of bringing the abdominals back to center. This work applies to severe 'split' cases but also general cases where women are unhappy with the state of their belly or the rate at which the abdominal tone is coming back together.

Nutrition
Motherhood – Pregnancy, childbirth, and nursing take a lot of nutrients from the mother. Proper nutrition can help replenish vitality and prepare the mother for future pregnancies.

Children – Properly nourishing babies and toddlers is one of the most crucial first steps to raising a healthy family. Moms and Dads equally benefit from learning what makes good food for their children.

Chiropractic
Chiropractic care can also help after childbirth. In the eight weeks following labor and delivery, the ligaments that loosened during pregnancy begin to tighten up again. Ideally, joint problems brought on during pregnancy from improper lifting or reaching should be treated before the ligaments return to their pre-pregnancy state-to prevent muscle tension, headaches, rib discomfort, and shoulder problems.

Acupuncture
A woman’s menstrual cycle is a good indicator of her general health. PMS and irregular menstruation are early signs of potentially serious reproductive system disorders such as endometriosis, fibroids, cysts and infertility. PMS can disrupt a woman’s life in many ways including her relationships, self esteem, work productivity, exercise routine, sleep and the way she feels about her own body. Month after month millions of women suffer unnecessarily with symptoms that could be eliminated or reduced with acupuncture and lifestyle changes. Acupuncture is a natural, low cost form of treatment with virtually no side effects. PMS is not a normal monthly occurrence as many women accept it to be.
