Title: Holistic Support During Your Conception, Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum Journey

Description: Karissa McCallum L.Ac, CD(DONA) will discuss how acupuncture, herbs, essential oils, and other modalities can be used throughout every stage of bringing a baby into this world, including some recommendations for creating a trauma-informed birth plan. (In reality, a huge part of that starts with choosing the right providers and location.) Whether you support families on this journey, are trying to conceive, are newly pregnant, or are in the postpartum phase, there will be something for you. You will learn research and facts as well as hear about actual case studies, experiences, and testimonials.
