Gentle but powerful

The ancient way to relief pregnancy pains and aches and prepare for labour

“Uh, needles, really?”, is what a lot of women think.

The super-thin acupuncture needles are not painful and the benefits are enormous. And no, I won’t stick needles in your belly!

If you’re dealing with…

Nausea that won’t let up
Headaches that won’t quit
Nights of tossing and turning
Legs that feel heavy and swollen
A back that’s constantly aching
That pesky sciatica acting up
Excess water retention
Your baby stubbornly in a breech position
Blood pressure that needs lowering
Diabetes needing extra support
And the challenges of postpartum recovery

…acupuncture could be your saving grace. I’ve had the privilege of helping 95% of women find relief through acupuncture sessions. This gentle and ancient technique has countless benefits throughout your pregnancy. Not only does it improve your overall well-being, but it also enhances blood flow to the placenta, ensuring the healthy development of your precious little one.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Attending the prenatal birth course with Jutta Wohlrab was truly a wonderful and enriching experience. From the very beginning, the course was exceptionally well structured, thoughtfully paced, and created in a way that made every participant feel comfortable, included, and supported. Jutta has an incredible ability to explain complex topics in a clear, calm, and reassuring manner. The amount of knowledge she shared was impressive, but what stood out most was how practical and relevant everything felt. She balanced medical information, emotional preparation, and real-life guidance in a way that made the entire experience both informative and empowering. Her warm and approachable personality created a safe environment where questions were encouraged and no concern ever felt too small or insignificant. You can clearly feel her passion, dedication, and genuine care for expecting parents. She not only teaches but truly prepares you mentally and emotionally for the journey ahead. The organization of the course was outstanding. Each session flowed naturally, the materials were easy to understand, and the overall atmosphere made learning enjoyable rather than overwhelming. I left the course feeling much more confident, reassured, and excited about the upcoming birth experience. I am deeply grateful for the time, effort, and heart that Jutta puts into her work. I would wholeheartedly recommend this course to any expecting parent looking for thorough preparation delivered with professionalism, warmth, and authenticity.

Jutta bringt viel Erfahrung mit und vermittelt ihr Wissen klar, strukturiert und gleichzeitig sehr lebendig. Besonders angenehm war ihre Art. Sie bringt viel Humor und Charakter in den Kurs, was die Inhalte leichter zugänglich macht und dem Ganzen eine besondere Atmosphäre gibt. Sehr hilfreich fanden wir die praktischen Anleitungen zu Massagen sowie die Erklärungen und Übungen dazu, wie man das Baby gut in Position unterstützen kann. Auch die Rolle des Partners wurde gut einbezogen, sodass wir uns als Team gestärkt gefühlt haben. Insgesamt sind wir mit mehr Sicherheit, Wissen und Vertrauen aus dem Kurs gegangen und würden ihn jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

The course was special because it brought clarity to many of my doubts. The detailed explanations, answers to different questions, and helpful videos made everything easier to understand and feel less overwhelming. I would definitely recommend this course to a pregnant friend. It provides reassurance, clarity, and confidence, which are so important during this phase. Thank you Jutta for a great informative weekend 🫶🏼

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was so afraid and had many questions before attending the course and after participating in the course, I feel confident, knowledgeable, empowered about the birth procedure. Jutta is really exceptional and the way she held the entire course is just amazing! She has all the knowledge, open, friendly and very energetic. She gives you all the specifics about the birth procedure including breathing exercises, massage techniques that help ease your birthing experience. I would definitely recommend the course to all pregnant women!

Auch individuelle Bedürfnisse werden beachtet und Jutta beherrscht zB tolle Massagetechniken. Auch die anderen Kurse sind Klasse und jetzt wo das Baby geboren ist geht die Zusammenarbeit doch weiter. Jutta steht auch für Vertrauen und Zuversicht in den Prozess und in den eigenen Körper. Herzens Empfehlung!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I absolutely adore Jutta. From the start of my pregnancy, she supported me with so much warmth, heart, and hands-on care. In our first session she guided me through every option available and even helped me secure a Beleghebamme even when I was already 6 months pregnant (an impossible feat here in Berlin). I’ve attend her yoga classes and acupuncture regularly and also participated in her weekend birthing course, which was truly special. My husband can take some time to open up to new people, but Jutta had a wonderful way of involving him from the very beginning. By the end of the course, he felt so comfortable, excited, and genuinely engaged in the whole process. It was amazing to see. Jutta has this incredible ability to make everything informative, practical, and light-hearted at the same time. Her stories bring concepts to life, and you can feel that she truly cares for every person she works with. She is an amazing speaker, so knowledgeable, so engaging, with fascinating experiences and travels (!) to share. I’m deeply grateful to live in the neighborhood and have such easy access to her support. She has made my pregnancy honestly a joyful, healthy experience. I will genuinely miss this phase with her, but I’m already looking forward to joining her for all her postnatal offerings :) Jutta is a force of nature. The world’s women need even more access to people like her. Highly, highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ich denke, die anderen Rezensionen sprechen bereits für sich: Jutta ist eine erfahrene, fröhliche und warmherzige Hebamme mit einem unglaublichen Wissensschatz. Sie betreut mich im Rahmen meiner dritten Schwangerschaft, darüber hinaus habe ich aber auch hypnobirthing und Yoga bei ihr gemacht und es ist wirklich alles uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert! Was ich besonders hervorheben möchte, ist, dass sich Jutta wirklich mit viel Hingabe nicht nur um das (werdende) Baby sondern auch die Bedürfnisse der Schwangeren kümmert, wie ich es bei keiner meiner anderen Hebammen kennengelernt habe. Termine mit ihr sind immer sehr wohltuend, wie eine kleine Ruheinsel, selbst wenn der Alltag sehr hektisch ist. Danke für alles, Jutta!

Me and my husband did an online Hypnobirthing course with Jutta. We were both very skeptical of whether this would work online, but it was truly amazing. I had a home birth and the techniques I learnt from Jutta were incredibly helpful. She is very knowledgable and always gave us very good advice. We now have a very happy 10 month old keeping us busy every single hour of the day 🙂

My wife and I had been very fortunate in having Jutta as our midwife. She is not just our midwife, she is our mentor and coach. We have tried many first time things with her guidance such as yoga, acupuncture, hypnosis to name a few. After attending her hypnobirthing courses, we are extremely confident in ourselves and are mentally prepared for the birthing process. Highly recommend for mothers and fathers to be.

Jutta was my guardian angel during my second pregnancy, helped me so much, prepared me and made me succeed. My first birth was really traumatic and Jutta helped me so much with trauma release therapy, after that prepared me for the birth with acupuncture and hypnobirthing. I really enjoyed every time, felt relaxed and more confident and succeeded.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Jutta. I’ve been to her for acupuncture and prenatal and postnatal yoga. Jutta has a very special energy and loving manner that gave me incredible strength, especially at the end of my pregnancy and after the birth. Thank you so much again, dear Jutta.

– Lilli Werners

I am incredibly happy to have Jutta as my midwife. With her years of experience and positive energy, she gives me a lot of strength and has helped me to prepare for the birth in a positive and informed way and to simply look forward to it. Her acupuncture and massages have helped me a lot. I also attended her birth preparation course with my partner and we were thrilled. I can also recommend her book Happy Birthing Days. In all areas of her work, you can tell that Jutta has gained many years of experience with births in different countries and cultures and uses this to give the best possible advice.

~ Jacqueline Ö.

Jutta was recommended to me for acupuncture at BEL. I can wholeheartedly pass on this recommendation. Jutta is a very positive person and you can tell how much passion she puts into her work. She is a very experienced midwife.

In any case, my son turned around.

Jutta also gave me acupuncture to prepare me for the birth, helped me with my water retention, and was there for me with advice and support when my son didn’t want to come out.

Thank you so much, dear Jutta, and see you soon!

~ Ava Su

Jutta is a breathe of fresh air when it comes to pregnancy, birth and post-natal care. I was lucky to meet Jutta during my pregnancy through her hypnobirthing course and acupuncture sessions – her experience, advice and general positive attitude helped me so much to prepare for the birth. Her post-natal yoga classes have also been a great support in re-strengthening after the birth and generally a weekly session to look forward to. Especially during the corona crisis she has adapted quickly and effectively to offer all her courses online so no one has to miss out. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Jutta. (2020)

(Update 2024) Again during my second pregnancy Jutta was a wonderful, positive support. I had an acupuncture session with her to help prepare for the birth and also attended her yoga classes. She is very knowledgeable and always ready to help on all pregnancy and baby-related issues. I always left Jutta’s studio with a smile on my face and feeling empowered for the rest of the day. Thank you again.
