Maternity & Post-Natal Reflexology
Reflexology is a fantastic way to support your body and mind through all of the changes you will experience during pregnancy and your post-natal period.
I often have clients come to me towards the end of their pregnancy when their midwife has suggested they try reflexology to help prepare for birth. However, introducing reflexology much earlier in the process is much more beneficial.
During your first reflexology treatment we will discuss your current health, any symptoms or issues you are experiencing both pregnancy related or otherwise, your pregnancy journey so far, you current lifestyle and wellbeing.
After getting you comfortable on the couch, using additional support cushions as necessary - particularly if you are in your third trimester, and cleansing your feet with hot towels, I will provide a relaxing and comforting, individually tailored,
pregnancy specific, duopody treatment.
Reflexology can help support you through your pregnancy by:
Supporting you with any pregnancy related symptoms
Improving sleep
Aiding relaxation
Relieving stress and anxiety
Releasing tension
Improving mood & overall wellbeing
Assisting hormonal regulation
Improving circulation
Improving energy levels
Providing a safe space for you to be heard and feel supported
Helping you to prepare for labour and birth
Supporting you through your post-natal recovery.
Client Reviews
Fertility & Maternity Treatments
“I’m so grateful to have found Sam, she’s an exceptional reflexologist. From the first appointment Sam took the time to get to know me, my health concerns and reasons for being there. She listened and used her experience and knowledge to give me the best treatments possible. I started seeing Sam at the start of my fertility/ IVF journey and I continue to go now I’m pregnant. Sam has helped me beyond words, her and her treatments keep me calm, reduce my stress and anxiety, and have supported my body and mind through a really difficult time. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”
Post Natal Treatments
“Had a great experience with Sam. I am currently in the area as my son is in intensive care ward. The treatment definitely helped with my stress levels. Will definitely be booking in another appt.”
