While many people can say they are a Doula, childbirth coach, or
midwife, only a select few like Lora Schwacke can boast that they are a Bradley Method Teacher. The philosophy of this all natural birthing
method revolves around the concept that childbirth is a natural
occurrence that should be interfered with as little as possible. Humans
have been delivering babies for tens of thousands of years, and a
majority of that time there were no doctors or medications involved.
This is because the female reproductive system is specifically meant to
procreate, that is its only reason for existence.
Expressing the tenets of this natural method, Lora Schwacke helps her clients and students to understand the female body, and what it goes through before, during, and after labor and delivery. In addition, the Bradley Method considers the spouse very important in the process. The husband is taught to be the birthing coach during Bradley Method classes, which makes them as involved as possible in the actual event. This is a great way for men to feel that they are vital to the experience, instead of bystanders who are only watching – or worse, in the way.
Lastly, the Bradley Method is wholly concerned with allowing the mother to have a natural, drug free childbirth, if that is what she desires. It goes without saying that there will be some instances where medical intervention is necessary. Yet, most participants who Lora Schwacke helps through the Bradley Method classes are able to give birth without added medication.
