Music Therapy Assisted Childbirth provides music, support, information, and education to the birthing family by someone who is both a board certified music therapist and music therapy assisted childbirth specialist, during pre-natal, labor, birthing and the immediate postpartum experience.
Music Therapy Assisted Childbirth (MTACB) is a great tool to aid in many aspects of the birthing process. Pain management, anxiety and birth fear reduction, stress management, breathing and relaxation techniques and much more can be addressed. Mothers and Fathers can participate in exercises to help produce their desired birth experience.
