Headaches and migraines can be debilitating. They take time away from work, from family, from events, from life, from all the fun things that you really want to do. Don't let the threat of another migraine restrict your life choices another minute. Massage can reduce the intensity, the duration and the frequency of both headaches and migraines. Imagine being able to reduce your migraine coping strategies from taking prescribed painkillers and literally sleeping for two days every fortnight, down to having a big drink of water and maybe a nap to get rid of a mild headache a few times a year. Can you imagine how much nicer life would be?!?! If you'd love to be migraine free as soon as possible, click the 'send message' button and you're on your way! Respect and nurturing care is something I'm very passionate about throughout pregnancy and for new mums. Pregnancy is an amazing and life changing time in a woman's life. It can also be filled with unrivaled pain, depression, insecurity and what the hell happened to my body??? Now while these things are common in pregnancy, you don't have to accept them as normal.
Pain can be managed, be reduced and even disappear with the right massage techniques. Pelvic pain is caused by hormones creating laxity in the joints and tight muscles not wanting to keep up with all the body changes. Massage will allow muscle tension to disappear, reduce muscle fatigue and create greater strength where previously there was only pain and fatigue. Depression and anxiety can cause all sorts of issues during pregnancy. Poor sleep, stress in both mum and baby, poor eating habits, it all leads to a very stressed mother and baby that struggle to get to know each other. Massage can give both mother and baby space to get to know each other before baby is born. Comfort, reassurance and nurturing care during a pregnancy massage are instrumental in allowing the soon to be mum to bond with her unborn bubba. A deeper relationship will build and facilitate a close connection that follows through into childhood. A happy, well cared for mum-to-be feels secure in the knowledge she can birth her beautiful baby with love and look after bub with care and affection. Massage through pregnancy is one of the greatest gifts we can offer our mums to be. Massage is available through all trimesters and post partum. Reflexology is the ancient tradition of foot massage. Based on Chinese meridian theory, the pressure points in the feet correspond to an area or action within the body. All systems of the body will be stimulated with a reflexology session. Western developing practitioners in the 20th Century often achieved great healing with many sessions each week for their patients. Reflexology is highly rejuvenating for tired legs, as both feet and calves are massaged with specific movements. The feet are one of the most neglected parts of the body, often taking over 10000 steps every day and supporting us tirelessly every day of our lives. Rejuvenate and invigorate with reflexology. Reiki is sometimes referred to as universal healing energy. During a reiki session the channel (therapist) acts as a conduit for the healing energy to flow from the universe into your body. The energy itself knows where it needs to go, the therapist doesn't direct it at all, although some channels are very intuitive and it may appear this way on occasion. Reiki sessions are performed while you are fully clothed, nestled under a soft blanket. Some people feel highly relaxed after a reiki session. Others have reported feelings of calm meditation. Still others feel full of energy and happy, ready to great the day. Reiki can be a great tool to improve relaxation, focus and decrease stress. Soulful healing. Individual care. Every session is customised to the individual on the day. Book online via the booking link.
