Apart from being a lovely, supportive and nurturing way to enjoy some me-time, postnatal massage helps to restore your body to your pre-pregnant condition, addresses the stress of carrying and caring for a newborn and speeds recovery by bringing relief to sore muscles. In addition, (optional) abdominal massage helps shrink the uterus and reduce subcutaneous scar tissue.

The treatment starts with a consultation to discuss any post-pregnancy issues and areas to focus on, allowing me to tailor the treatment just for you. So, whether you want to feel completely relaxed with gentle relaxing strokes or you would prefer some deeper work to iron out knots and tension, you will walk away feeling renewed and refreshed (and if you fancy sleeping throughout the whole treatment that’s more than fine).

Shorter massages are available in case you are only able to slip out briefly between feeds. I am also happy for you to bring your baby along to the appointment and have them next to you on the massage couch, or in a car seat next to you. It may not be as relaxing for you if they are with you, but they are very welcome.
