Join us for a closer look at the use of herbs, homeopathy, osteopathy, acupuncture, aromatherapy and chiropractic care during the perinatal period.

Trauma Informed Care is defined as an organizational structure and treatment framework that involves understanding, recognizing and responding to the effects of all types of trauma.

Join our expert speakers to learn more about how to approach perinatal families through a lens of trauma informed care.
