Expecting families in the Greater Boston Area have a wealth of perinatal talent available which can be a great supplement to Birth Doula support to help you prepare for your babyś birthday and beyond. Many of my clients come to me with uncertainty about which available options are best suited to their unique needs, as well as questions about who to trust for those services. Below I have included some great options for specialists, workshops, and classes that I believe are worth the investment. I will update the list as new offerings become available.

Massage Therapists- Myofascial Workers

  • Marissa Farrell. Marissa is a doula, perinatal yoga instructor, and perinatal massage therapist. She also leads workshops on improving and maintaining pelvic floor health and on abdominal rehabilitation for diastasis recti, a condition that effects many people after giving birth, at the Laughing Dog Yoga Studio in Wellesley, MA. I can personally attest to the efficacy of Marissaś pelvic floor workshop since I took the 4 week version. After learning what Marissa teaches with her InHara System I finally sopped suffering from the stress incontinence that I had been told I would just have to live with after I gave birth to my second daughter. Thank you Marissa!
