therapeutic birth + bodywork

Catherine Holland, LMT

massage therapist

I view the body holistically, all of the systems interconnected. When systems are working in harmony, we feel good. Pain, discomfort or dis-ease are signals that harmony needs to be restored. When we can move freely and comfortably in our bodies, we thrive and function effectively in the world. True wellbeing can be maintained through therapeutic care, including massage therapy.

Touch is healing.

I work skillfully and intuitively, pulling from my knowledge of movement and physiology. I integrate a holistic blend of eastern and western modalities. Each of my sessions will address your specific needs in the moment; resolve pain, facilitate movement, reduce stress and feel revitalized.

I believe that when a woman feels respected, informed, and deeply connected in her birth journey, regardless of its twists and turns, she emerges confidently into motherhood. Using physiology and movement as the framework of my care, we can patiently allow the birth process to unfold, even alongside the use of possible interventions. You can come to birth feeling powerful, capable and attuned to your body.

I trust birth.

Through pregnancy, birth and postpartum, I will share practitioners, self care tips and a toolkit of information. An advocate for relationship vs. management in care, my role is to help you clarify your options, communicate your needs and make decisions that align with your personal values. I want you to reflect back on your birth experience knowing that you felt safe and in control.
