Five Ways You Can Use My Book: BirthTouch®: Shiatsu & Acupressure for the Childbearing Year

The BirthTouch®: Shiatsu and Acupressure for the Childbearing Year was created out of my own experiences. The book is a compilation of healing techniques I’ve learned along the way in my life long pursuit of knowledge about human healing and wisdom.

The BirthTouch® book provides your with multiple empowering ways to reduce stress, promote wellness and family bonding during your pregnancy.

1. The easy shiatsu routine is for couples and families to share at home. Touchj is the “vitamin T” that’s been proven in research studies to mitigate symptoms of depression and anxiety and to promote and enhance feelings of intimacy.

2. Shiatsu is done fully clothed, so it’s appropriate for gentle bonding for pregnant women and their children as well. You can use this sweet time to introduce your children to your baby growing inside.

3. The acupressure routine that’s included in the book is a pattern of points known to stimulate birthing. I’ve used this on many women with good results. You can do this at home with a partner, yourself. Of course, use this only at birthing time, and when your healthcare practitioner advises to do so.

4. In addition, BirthTouch® includes education for you about perinatal mental health.

5. And many how to exercises and techniques help you manage your emotions during pregnancy and give you concrete ways to prevent postpartum depression from creeping into your postpartum life with your baby.

6. BirthTouch® is a good mix of science and wisdom, good stuff to help you in your pregnancy.

The BirthTouch® book is available through Amazon.

I always appreciate hearing how families use these practices.
