Balance - Holistic Wellness for Women: Pregnancy, Perinatal, Menopause

14/12/2023

🤗 2024 we are ready for you! 🤗

After a few months to refocus and refresh (you need to fill your cup first before being able to give to others) I am DELIGHTED to announce 📣 that I’ll be launching a BABY MASSAGE course in January 2024!

Having personally experienced the therapeutic benefits of massage, and seeing how touch therapies helps to heal the mind and body; and being so passionate about the importance of mental well-being for women, particularly women going through the perinatal period, I am launching this new service at Balance - Holistic Wellness for Women: Pregnancy, Perinatal, Menopause and will be held NuGlow UK Wellness.

Your baby’s wellbeing and development is important and is your focus, BUT YOU need to be your focus TOO! And I know this can be tough!

This is where Balance with Katie is different. There is a lack of support for the ‘Mum’ and her mental and physical health and wellness, and Public maternal services are stretched. My goal is to create a safe, secure and non-judgmental community for women transitioning the perinatal period, using holistic approaches. Your mind and body deserve the opportunity to feel balanced.

I’d be so grateful if you could share this post/information and signpost those who you feel may benefit from my support.

If you would like anymore information ℹ️ or book a space please do reach out.

Tonight was all about…

AN opportunity to think about slowing down and taking the time to find out ways in which the mind and body can gain clarity, harmony and reconnection.

You’ll know I‘ve been transparent and authentic about my own personal mental health journey, on social media for many years now. And this will never change. I’m passionate about trying to help break down the stigma about mental health and looking at how we can empower ourselves to find and use holistic approaches to re-balance.

I was really proud of myself for finally getting my new treatment menu prepared and printed, and I finally launched my new Energy Therapy Sessions! 🧘

Tonight with 6 ladies I talked about self care through using body and skincare, enjoying a regular massage, and even meditation, mindfulness, affirmations, breath work and seated yoga.…

And we had a good natter about the demands of being a woman, a mum..

For me that’s what its all about ♥️ sharing my passion for wellbeing and I’m lucky that I get to call this work too 🥰

I’m ready to help you if you’re ready to be courageous in starting ♥️

It’s been all go, go, go! Hence why I’ve been quiet on here.

Since starting and resigning from the Community Maternity Support worker position at the local hospital 3 weeks ago, I’ve been trying to reset my mind and reassess what I truly want to focus on to help women with their health and wellness - particularly issues with the perimenopause and menopause.

I enrolled on a year’s long Hormonal Practitioner course back in April but due to the hospital job and other things I wasn’t able to focus on it.

But now I’ve made a start!

🤍 I’ve attended some online zoom training sessions for theory
🤍 I’ve buddied up with a fellow student and we’re working with each other as a case study to practice the protocols
🤍 I’m working through the theory - so far ‘Adrenals’ ‘Hormones’ and ‘Light’ (Circadian Rhythm)
🤍 I’ve assessed which of my hormones are too high or too low - and what things I can implement into my daily life to help me
🤍 I’ve taken part in a hypnosis.

And already I know this is the missing jigsaw 🧩 puzzle for my mental and physical wellness and for my business practice.

A personal journey will enable me to become more wholesome and support other women like me.

I’m going to start sharing more content on here, to highlight my experiences. And I hope you find it helpful.

Much love, Katie 🤍🤍🤍

💤🤰🏼I met the most lovely lady on Saturday for the new Pinks Boutique pregnancy ritual treatment, and I think she came away feeling like a new women (well nearly 😃).

The treatment included:
a foot soak and scrub, seated back massage, side lying full body massage, scrub and massage for bump and finished with a chest, neck, shoulder massage.

Pregnancy causes a lot of side effects and I can help support you to feel better. A full consultation and aftercare is provided with love 💞

Special price of £55 for 90 minutes.
Only 2 spaces left at this introductory price.

Pop me a message for more details or to book.

So have you wondered what “Balance with Katie” is all about?

Later this week I’ll record a little video to explain a little bit about my background, why I’m so passionate about supporting women during pregnancy and after birth, and how the services I offer and continue to introduce this year, can help you to feel more connected with yourself, your mind and ‘you’ as a woman and not just a mummy and partner.
