Pregnancy and Postnatal services
Pregnancy – whether it’s you first or fourth – is a path of transformation for your body and for your brain. At times it can feel overwhelming or all encompassing, like we don’t know ourselves anymore. Society tells us we should be glowing and loving every minute of our “pregnancy journey”…. and maybe you are!
And…maybe you also realise that you’ve got a whole new world of advice and decisions to navigate both before and after birth.
Perhaps you want someone to walk beside you, to hold your hand and help you find your own path.
To support you to stand strong and confident in the decisions you make
And to help you feel nurtured, cared for and listened to to birth and beyond.
I can be a calm, supportive presence among the storm of information and decisions. A sounding board and a place to come when you feel unsure.
And if you’re on this road, also carrying chronic illness, a high-risk label or pain along with you, I’ve got you. It’s a path I walked myself and it would be an honour to provide this support to you during your pregnancy and after you’ve given birth.
What can I offer?
- Birth Doula Support
- Navigating Choices for Pregnancy, birth and labour
- Birth plan prep
- Breast / chest feeding support
- Postnatal recovery advice, referrals and signposting
And of course:
Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage
Pregnancy can be a beautiful time – and one that can bring on extra aches, pains and niggles as your body adjusts to carrying and birthing your new baby.
I’m passionate about supporting you to live your life, pain free. No matter where you are in your pregnancy and postnatal journey, or what complexities you are facing, we can design a treatment which will answer your needs and support your body and your baby.
Treatments are 60 minutes and your first treatment will have space for a 30 minute consultation to share some of your birth story (for post-natal) or talk about your pregnancy experience (for pre-natal). We’ll use a mixture a deep tissue, gentle stretching and remedial work to ground and calm your body.
Treatments will be carried out sidelying, and your body and your bump will be fully supported to allow you to completely relax and experience the massage – leaving you mentally and physically rejuvenated and realigned.
You can choose between a clinic setting or a treatment in the comfort of your own home. Babies and breast/chest-feeding are always welcome for post-natal massage
