Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum require a level of care from a variety of different sources so doulas need to have a solid idea of when and how to refer to different providers. This is especially important when doula clients look to us for answers on who they need to see or what they need to do about a particular issue they are having.
If you are a newer doula you may be thinking “okay, awesome, but seriously I don’t know anyone!” Start with your current life. Do you see a massage therapist? If so, ask them if they do prenatal or postpartum massage. Do you see a chiropractor? Same thing, ask what their experience level is with prenatal and postpartum issues.
I send information to my clients about a few professions no matter what. Those include, Counseling, Pelvic Floor PT, Massage Therapy, Chiropractic, and other forms of movement and body work. I also regularly refer to placenta encapsulators and traditional bodywork professionals who do things like bellybinding and closing of the bones.
