Aromatherapy Pregnancy Massage - £45 (1 hour)

It has numerous benefits and can help relieve the following symptoms, specific to pregnancy:
- Sacroiliac pain
- Water retention
- Cramp
- Sciatica
- Tiredness
- Constipation
- Circulation problems
- Emotional stress - anxiety and worry
- Improve connection with your baby

Hydrotherm Pregnancy Massage - £45 (1 hour)
This is a wonderful and truly unique massage therapy for pregnancy, particularly beneficial for if you are heavily pregnant, or if you cannot lie down.
A unique three-dimensional massage technique allows the therapist to slide their hands under, over and around your body in an uninterrupted motion. Through water displacement, rather than through physically lifting the client, the Hydrotherm allows the therapist to work with your body weight as the source of pressure, facilitating a deeper, more 'holistic' massage technique. You will be sitting up on two pillows of warm water - your body weight then becomes the source of pressure.
The relaxing warmth of the Hydrotherm promotes an immediate sensation of well being, enhancing the therapeutic effect of the massage. The gentle heat increases circulation and the removal of toxins and improves the efficacy of aromatherapy oils, since the warmth generated by the Hydrotherm activates the essential oils and accelerates their absorption into the skin. There will be a choice of oils to suit your skin type.
A wonderfully nurturing massage experience for you both.

Shiatsu is a wonderful treatment for the mother-to-be, helping to relieve the symptoms of morning sickness, and the muscular pain or discomfort caused by growth and hormonal changes.

It is suitable for all ages including babies, during pregnancy, and for even acutely painful conditions, for structural problems through to more emotional ones. It is also beneficial for just finding a restful relaxing stillness, which in turn resources the body and brings a sense of wellbeing.
During pregnancy, it can help on many levels; it can help alleviate pressure on the spine,diaphragm and organs as the baby grows, with rebalancing of the pelvis as the bones become softer due to relaxin hormones, it can help with back pain, the pubis symphysis,and other structural conditions with changing hormones, anxieties, and the many transformations taking place, by working with the parasympathetic nervous system, it calms the body, allowing relaxation and time to feel into the incredible journey of creation.
For the new born baby it can help with any cranial compressions from the journey of birth which can cause colic, sucking difficulties, reflux. It can help with rebalancing any structural holding in neck or pelvis releasing any emotional trauma (if the labour has been quite difficult), to help any pressure from ventouse, or forceps release or caesarian changes in external pressures on inner fluid pressures. It can help with embodiment and coming into form and a general calming of the nervous system, helping sleeping patterns.
