Event Details
Rather than focusing on a rigid method, CEA/MNY’s cooperative childbirth education embraces the process of labor and birth while offering students a wide variety of pain-coping and labor-coping strategies. This workshop explores the myriad ways women can move through labor without medication and identifies certain universal pain coping techniques as well as the theory behind them. Participants will also learn ways to teach this material in class through discussion and demonstration. This workshop focuses on non-pharmacological techniques for labor and is not a “hands on” workshop. Physical support techniques are covered in “Teaching Labor Support.”
Virtual workshop hosted on Zoom. Link will be provided via email.
Registration is open up until 20 minutes before the event start time.
