Our Approach

Gentleness is Our Superpower

A newborn adjustment uses no more pressure than you'd use to check a ripe tomato. Our pediatric techniques are so gentle, babies often sleep through them.

We adapt every technique based on age, size, and developmental stage. What works for a 6-week-old is very different from what works for a 6-year-old or a 36-year-old.

Why Start Care Early?

Birth — even an uncomplicated one — places significant mechanical stress on an infant's spine and cranium. Early assessment allows us to identify and correct restrictions before they become compensations that follow children into adulthood.

Conditions We Help With

From Bump to Baby & Beyond

Whether it's round ligament pain in your second trimester or colic at 3 AM — we've seen it all and know how to help gently.

A Roadmap, Not a Recipe

Every pregnancy and every baby is different. Here's what tends to come up at each stage — and what we'd do for you and your little one.

Your Bloom care timeline
Sample protocol. Adjusted to your body, your baby, your goals.
Weeks 1 – 12 · First trimester
Foundation visit + nausea support
Gentle pelvic balancing and rib mechanics for breath room. Many women find round-ligament discomfort eases here.
Weeks 13 – 27 · Second trimester
Webster Technique cadence begins
Every 2–3 weeks. We focus on sacroiliac balance and posture as your center of gravity shifts.
Weeks 28 – 40 · Third trimester
Weekly visits · birth-prep positioning
Optimal fetal positioning, sleep-side coaching, and pelvic floor coordination as you approach delivery.
Days 1 – 14 postpartum
Newborn check + lactation alignment
Baby's first gentle assessment. Mom's pelvic and rib re-coordination. Latch + nursing-posture review with our IBCLC.
Weeks 6+ postpartum
Recovery + sustaining care
Diastasis assessment, mom's spinal recovery, and ongoing infant developmental check-ins.

"Begin anywhere on the line. We'll meet you where you are."
