Counseling
AWC’s on-site counselors offer support and help for those suffering from general mental health issues, anxiety and depression. We specialize in the areas of Post-Partum Depression, stress, sexual dysfunction, gender identity, sexual trauma, as well as relationship and intimacy concerns.Hypnobirthing
Hypnobirthing empowers parents with techniques to achieve a gentle, calm birth for themselves and their baby. It teaches deep levels of relaxation to eliminate fear which can cause tension, and thus, pain. Hypnobirthing greatly reduces and often eliminates fatigue during labor and the need for medications. We offer a five week course to teach this technique to our patients.Nutrition and Diet
Our onsite registered dietitian is here to guide women in various stages of their lives looking to adapt their nutrition to meet their specific needs related to pregnancy, menopause, illness (e.g. diabetes), weight management and more.Prenatal Massage
The most recent research indicates that reducing stress levels may be the most important thing you do for you and your body. Regular prenatal massage is a great way to relax and release physical tension to help your body adjust to the many changes and relieve discomfort during your pregnancy. As part your OB care at AWC, we offer each pregnant woman a complimentary massage for each trimester. For more information and answers to FAQs, please click the Prenatal Massage link above.Therapeutic Massage Therapy
Whether it's to let go of your daily stresses, to ease an injury or release tension in your muscles and structurally re-balance, AWC has a specially trained massage therapist on staff to provide you with a unique experience that is customized to your individual needs. Studies show that regular massage for women of all ages has an amazing number of benefits. It is preventive medicine that reduces stress, blood pressure, muscle discomfort and enhances the general well being and health of the recipient.Announcements
