Workshop — Assess & Release: the full-body approach to pregnancy support
The Belly Balancing Method
Balance the body. Balance the belly.
A hands-on training in fascial and body balancing for pregnancy and postpartum — how tension, ligament balance, and posture shape the uterus, baby position, labor comfort, and postpartum recovery and what to do about it with manual therapy, movement, and breath.
Includes the live workshop and a private community space.
SOUNDS FAMILIAR
* Your prenatal clients get temporary relief, then the pain comes right back.
* You know fascia matters, but nobody taught you a repeatable assessment.
* Baby is posterior, and you're not sure what's yours to treat.
* Postpartum recovery stalls and "just do your kegels" isn't cutting it.
AFTER THIS COURSE
* You assess the whole system in under ten minutes.
* You know which restriction to release first — and why.
* You can explain baby position to a client without scaring her.
* Your prenatal referrals go up because the results hold
Inside the training
One framework. Twenty-three presentations. Every single time.
01
Assess
Read the whole body — pelvic balance, fascial restriction, guarding, nervous-system state.
02
Interpret
What is the pain signalling? What is the posture telling you?
03
Intervene
Open or support tissue to create space, inside the safety window.
04
Empower
Teach movement and confidence so the change holds between sessions.
Every complaint in this course — all 23 of them — is taught through the same four steps. You are not memorising protocols. You are learning one way of thinking that works on a presentation you have never seen before.
Pressure · Coordination · Tone
Three questions to ask when a pelvic complaint does not fit a tidy category. Where is the load going? Is the timing right? Is the tissue too tight, too loose, or too sensitive? They are reasoning prompts, not mechanisms — and the course says so on the slide.
WHO IT'S FOR
Built for pelvic health and prenatal providers.
If you already put hands on pregnant and postpartum bodies — PT, OT, chiropractic, massage, midwifery, doula work — this fills the gap between "I can feel something" and "I know exactly what to do next."
Workshop include
Practical information you can use right away!
Private cases
Case questions answered between sessions.
Questions people ask
Do I need prior fascia training?
No. We start with assessment fundamentals, so you can arrive curious and leave with a system.
Is it safe for every trimester?
The techniques are gentle and low-force, with clear precautions and modifications taught for each stage.
When does it open?
Waitlist members hear first and get early-bird pricing before public enrollment.
Eight units. 393 slides. Speaker notes on every one.
One framework, run through all 23 clinical presentations.
Unit 1 — Framework, Principles & Foundations+
The reasoning structure the whole course runs on, and the rules of touch that govern every technique in it. You'll learn the four steps, the six principles with their evidence status attached, the Slackline Principle, and how consent, pacing and the safety window actually work on the table.
Unit 2 — Anatomy: The Uterus & What Surrounds It+
The picture behind the abdominal wall: the uterus, its ligaments, the placenta, congenital anomalies, the scarred uterus. And the honest boundary — what your hands can reach, what they can't, and which findings end the session and start a referral.
Unit 3 — The Fascial System in Pregnancy & Postpartum+
The connective logic that turns anatomy into a treatment plan. This is where you learn the fascial mapping system — the five-step Look · Touch · Route · Name · Confirm procedure that becomes the Assess step for every presentation in the course.
Unit 4 — Screening, Systemic Health & Safety+
A repeatable whole-body screen every client gets, on one course-wide pressure scale. Plus the systemic work most manual therapy courses skip: blood pressure triage, VTE screening, the preeclampsia picture, and a red-flag and referral session that sits before any hands-on work in the course.
Unit 5 — Assess & Treat: Pregnancy Presentations+
Sixteen pregnancy presentations, grouped by region and system so the shared assessment is taught once and the time goes to telling them apart. Round ligament pain is worked in full as the model protocol, and every other block runs the same four steps.
Unit 6 — Labor+
What the uterus is doing, where the baby needs to be, and how position changes at every stage — taught with the evidence for each piece stated plainly. Then dystocia and malposition: how to reason about what's stalling, what your scope is, and how to talk about it without leaving a client blaming herself.
Unit 7 — Assess & Treat: Postpartum & Pelvic Health+
Seven postpartum and pelvic presentations on one postpartum timeline, opening with a scope gate so you know from slide one what your license lets you assess. The unit converges on the three pillars — Pressure, Coordination and Tone — as reasoning questions you can run on any pelvic complaint.
Unit 8 — Integration & Scope+
How to carry the method into your own practice: your scope, your charting, your referral relationships, and your client-facing language. Closes with the retired-claims list and a one-page test you can run over your own marketing copy.
Two blocks are marked bonus and carry no CEU: infant care and referral in Unit 8, and craniosacral therapy in Unit 5. They are taught because you will be asked about them, and they are labelled so nobody is surprised at certificate time.
By the end, you will be able to —
*Run a whole-body perinatal assessment in about twenty minutes
*Know which findings are yours to treat and which end the session
*Dose contact by region and depth, with a discomfort cap you never cross
*Screen for the things that must not be missed — and refer in a way that does not frighten her
*Work the 16 most common pregnancy complaints and the 7 most common postpartum ones
*Support labor prep and partner technique without promising an outcome
*Write a chart note and a referral letter that hold up
