Herbal Medicine and Nutrition for Midwives and Birth Practitioners

Are you a midwife or practitioner who looks after women in the antenatal or postnatal period?

Do you feel confident in managing a woman's antenatal & postnatal use of nutritional products & herbal medicines? 

There are a myriad of nutritional and herbal supplements available to purchase online, in supermarkets, chemists and health food stores; it can be difficult for consumers to know the difference between good quality and inferior products.  What should you be recommending to women?

This workshop will cover:

• Nutritional supplements in pregnancy: multivitamins, probiotics, Vitamin D, Fish oils, Iron, Calcium & Magnesium
• Herbal medicine for birth and lactation: Raspberry Leaf tea & galactagogues
• Antenatal & postnatal diets: healthy eating & recommendations
• Safety issues & current research

COST: $25 OR $20 if you book with a friend

INCLUDES: Morning tea/Supper, guest speakers, access to notes/resources and a FREE gift bag
