Optimal Maternal Positioning for Birth Professionals Complete Online Video Series
Practical, Evidence-Informed Tools to Support Labour Progress with Clarity and Confidence

Optimal Maternal Positioning (OMP) gives you practical tools, biomechanical insight, and guided strategies that expand your toolkit so you can support women expertly through pregnancy, labour and birth, even when curveballs appear.
