Body Ready Method®
The Body Ready Method® (BRM®) is an evidence‑based prenatal and postpartum movement approach designed to support the physiological process of birth by optimizing balance, strength, mobility, and alignment in the body. This method focuses on function over fitness, helping your body work smarter, not harder during pregnancy, birth, and recovery.
What Is the Body Ready Method®?
Body Ready Method® is a proactive, whole‑body approach to preparing for childbirth and postpartum recovery. Using functional movement, targeted exercises, and hands‑on techniques, BRM® helps create space, balance, and resilience in the pregnant body so birth can unfold more efficiently.
BRM® is built around five key pillars:
Pelvis
Pelvic Floor
Core
Upper Body Mobility
Functional Movement Patterns
Together, these pillars support optimal fetal positioning, efficient labor mechanics, and smoother postpartum recovery.
How Body Ready Method® Can Help
Body Ready Method® can support you by:
Reducing common pregnancy aches and pains
Improving balance and alignment as your body changes
Supporting optimal baby positioning
Minimizing pelvic floor dysfunction
Reducing strain on the abdominal core and risk of diastasis recti
Preparing your body for a more efficient labor and pushing phase
Supporting smoother, more intentional postpartum recovery
Many discomforts often labeled as “just part of pregnancy” can be reduced—or avoided altogether—when the body is properly supported.
What to Expect in a Body Ready Method® Session
Each BRM® experience is individualized and tailored to your body, goals, and stage of pregnancy or postpartum recovery.
Sessions typically include:
A full‑body movement and posture assessment
Evaluation of breathing patterns and core function
Pelvic and hip mobility work to support balance and space
Pelvic floor awareness and functional engagement
Functional movement education for daily life
Integration of breath, core, pelvic floor, and movement patterns
You will leave with a personalized movement practice you can continue throughout pregnancy and into postpartum.
