SOFTENING INTO SELF - PREGNANCY CARE PACKAGE
This Package is a beautiful warm hug for your entire pregnancy journey, a way to nourish, educate holistically and prepare your ever changing body and opening heart as you move through the various stages of pregnancy & towards the birth portal.
I have seen first hand how regular body work, gentle breathe connection, time spent being deeply held and nourished by woman has a profound enhancement on the overall wellbeing and nervous system of the pregnant woman.
Receiving specialised pregnancy body work that can be constantly tailored to suit your unique pregnancy journey and needs, supports the bodies natural progression and softening process throughout pregnancy.
It also allows time and space for mumma to connect with another woman one on one throughout this important phase, as well as carving time to connect with her own heart, baby and body intuition whilst regulating her nervous system.
This becomes more than just a nourishing massage, but a practice rehearsal for birth. The place you journey to on the massage table, is a similar place within you that you primally journey to during labour. Becoming familiar with these parts of you and how to access them, to fine tune your intuition, your body awareness and explore all the emotions from peace and empowerment to fear and safety, is an incredible way to ready yourself for the experience of birth.

- Initial Consultation and 90 min Pregnancy Body Work Session

SINGULAR PREGNANCY/POST BODY WORK SESSIONS
Why body work is so deeply supportive during pregnancy?
Body work relaxes the nervous system and releases oxytocin which helps mumma connect with her self, her intuition and her baby... in these states she feels deeply cared for which allows her to access those primal and intuitive instincts within and feel more connected to the journey of pregnancy itself and all that it had to offer.
Entering these regulated states as often as possible during pregnancy is wonderful birth prep.
Regular Body work helps the body to continue to soften as it rapidly changes and ripens. A beautiful reminder of the feminine softening that happens during pregnancy. This is all divine preparation for mothering itself. In a culture that has been driven by the masculine doing.. women often need to be reminded or guided back to their feminity during pregnancy and practice leaning into this part of themselves.
Relationship: if I'm going to hold space for you during your birth or postpartum then regular bodywork together is a beautiful way of deepening our relationship woman to woman. I get to know your body and your inner workings, often unspoken, before birth even happens. A deep level of trust and comfort can be built during these sessions. One client shared that being held by feminine hands during pregnancy reminded her of the love and care would feel like when being held by a village.
Positioning and pelvic release; in some cases if there is misalignment in woman's pelvis..this can result in a longer or more challenging birth.
There a techniques I can adopt during your session to bring more ease and comfort for you and more spaciousness for baby in your pelvis. This means bub has greater chance of accessing their most comfortable position leading up to birth, without interference, but by simply supporting the bodies homeostasis.
Self Love over selflessness: a tool that all women need to master before becoming mummas if you haven't already... self love will keep you thriving in the journey of motherhood.
$200 - $250 (Depending on travel distance to Mumma)

The first days and weeks following birth is such a sacred window of time. Think rest, softening, slowing down to heal and connect with your newborn and focus on your breast feeding journey.
