Pregnancy is a time of huge physical and emotional transition as a mother’s body adapts to the needs of her developing baby and she reflects on the prospect of giving birth and caring for her new baby.

Pregnancy massage is soothing and relaxing. A relaxed mother is more likely to enjoy her pregnancy, experience a calm labour, a smoother recovery following birth, have a positive bonding experience with her baby, and in turn have fewer problems establishing breastfeeding.

I am trained in Chinese and Indonesian massage and hold a specialist qualification in pregnancy massage. Appointments can be made at the Cheltenham Holistic Health Centre. I also offer home visits on request.
