Restore your balance and feel comfortable in your body

Birth and bodywork services for pregnant and postpartum women and Equilibrio training for professionals.

Equilibrio birth and bodywork

Welcome to Equilibrio, where we bridge the worlds of birthwork and bodywork to create a system of healing and restoration for women's physiology.

When you restore physiological balance to the body, you improve pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences, and create a more positive connection between mom and baby. Equilibrio treatments enhance women's health at every stage of her life, helping her regain core balance.

for women

Are you looking to feel better in your body?

When your body is out of balance, it might present as pain or discomfort, a baby in breech position, pelvic pain, fertility issues, and more. Bodywork treatment from an Equilibrio practitioner will help reduce discomfort and add ease to your everyday movements.

Equilibrio treatment also prepares your body for an easier birth with fewer interventions (even if your pregnancy was easy).

Hi, I’m Rachel, holistic bodyworker and midwife.

And here’s what I know: your body deserves to be in balance!

Achieving balance helps you feel better, from your cycle to fertility to pregnancy, through birth and beyond. Balance in your body increases your energy and ease, and helps you to connect with yourself and your loved ones.

Whether in my clinic or my classroom, the goal is always the same: for you to gain balance in your own body and to learn how to balance others.
