POSTPARTUM COACHING ROOTED IN COMPASSION & CARE
Honoring your healing, pace, & path back to yourself
Holistic, evidence-informed support for postpartum moms to help you rebuild strength, restore balance, and feel like yourself again.
what if postpartum care centered around you, not just the baby?
Does this sound like you?
Cleared for activity at your 6-week postpartum visit, but even holding your baby hurts
Feeling like you’re supposed to bounce back, but you don’t know where to begin
Everyone keeps asking about the baby, but no one asks how you’re doing
Getting in and out of bed still feels like a workout
Exhaustion, overstimulation, and constantly questioning if you’re doing the right thing are the new normal
Days are starting to blur together, and finding a routine that works has been challenging
You’re doing your best, but deep down you feel unseen and unsupported
You don’t have to figure out postpartum alone…
At Marluna Maternal Wellness LLC, we believe in honoring the whole mother - body, mind, and spirit. Our name is inspired by the moon and sea, symbols of rhythm, intuition, and feminine strength. Like these natural forces, we provide care that is both grounded and fluid rooted in evidence, yet attuned to the unique needs of each mother we serve.
We offer postpartum coaching to guide you during the emotional, physical, and lifestyle shifts that motherhood brings. This is a space where your experience is seen, your questions are heard, and your healing is honored.
Whether you’re navigating postpartum overwhelmed, trying to find balance, unsure which exercises are appropriate, or simply craving support, we’re here to help you reclaim your rhythm with compassion and clarity.
You’ll receive guidance that meets you where you are… from the early weeks through months 6, 9, or 12. Healing has no expiration date. Your postpartum recovery deserves expert support.
Healing the Mother. Honoring the Journey.

The Marluna Mama Circle
Your Mom Community
This is your virtual gathering place that is included when you sign up for the 12-week Postpartum Recovery Program. A warm, no-judgment zone where we talk, laugh, vent, and connect. You can come as you are with no makeup, messy bun, baby in arms.

Two group calls each month, 60-minutes each
Topic discussions guided by real-life motherhood themes
Optional sharing (you’re welcome to listen quietly or join in)
Encouragement and accountability from other moms who get it

Hi, I’m Erica
Founder of Marluna Maternal Wellness LLC, Occupational Therapist (OTR/L), Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist (PCES), Certified Women’s Health Specialist (CWHS), and most importantly, a mother to two little ones.
Marluna Maternal Wellness LLC was born from my own experience of becoming a mom, including the beauty, the challenges, the transformation, and the truth that support for mothers often falls short when we need it the most. Like many, I navigated pregnancy and postpartum with a blend of awe and exhaustion, realizing how deeply the journey impacts every part of us.
As an OT and mom, I saw the gaps in care… no one was teaching us how to move safely with a healing body, prevent injuries while carrying for a baby, manage the mental load, or reclaim your own well-being amidst the demands of motherhood. I knew I could help change that.
This is why I created Marluna - to nurture mothers with the kind of holistic, evidence-based coaching I wish I had.
My mission is to walk beside you, helping you heal, restore balance, and feel better in your body again. Because caring for the mother isn’t an option, it’s essential. You deserve guidance that is evidence-informed, compassionate, and grounded in real life, not generic advice from the internet.
Let’s honor your journey!

While my background is in occupational therapy, I provide non-clinical maternal wellness coaching. This means I don’t diagnose or provide medical treatment.

We’ll always honor your recovery timeline and comfort level while helping you rebuild strength, mobility, and confidence at your own pace. You’ll also receive bonus material specifically designed for C-section recovery.
