Whats your opinion? Would you as a pregnant mother to be go to a place to be educated and pampered?

Question

I will specialize in Prenatal / Reproductive massage techniques. I will also teach child birthing classes/ Lamaze classes. I will be much like a birthing center but without actually giving birth. A place to go to be educated and pampered. Also will educate birthing coaches on how to help the mom through the labor/ like how to massage the mom to help relax her. I know there are some places like this but not many would you as a pregnant mother to be go to one or recommend a friend for a affordable price. What are you thought do you think I should include any other techniques as well.

I was also considering offering prenatal yoga as well....this will be a place for womaen with reproductive problems as well for example endometrosis, and to help relieve menstrual symptoms

Answer 1

That is a great idea. You may want to consider having at least a midwife of staff and a doctor you can call just in case someone does go into labor while there, though. It would probably lower insurance costs as well.

Answer 2

I think it sounds like a good idea, as long as it is not too expensive.

You may want to also offer some "classes" about practical info new moms should know and maybe even hold some group discussions in a coffee gathering-type setting.
Good Luck!

Answer 3

If I was a pregnant woman, no I probably wouldn't I didn't believe in those classes. In fact I think relaxing during labour would be impossible with any type of massage/comfort. I have comfort in knowing hospitals have epidurals and other things to relive pain. I would never do a natural child birth either.

Answer 4

wow what a fantastic idea i would defiantly go that would be great, maybe you could have the mothers stay overnight to really pamper them as well, also maybe light exercises classes for pregnancy as well

Answer 5

I wish we had something like that here
