Massage

Massage is a beautiful way of connecting with your body and baby.

Nourish, nurture, pamper, align and balance your changing body with our signature therapeutic and restorative body massage treatments.

A combination of slow, flowing and soothing strokes, melts away the tension and encourages deeper relaxation.

The support of our unique doughnut-shaped Pregnancy Belly Beanbag, allows you to lay prone (on your front body) whilst your belly bump is supported, without pressure. This enhances your treatment, by deepening relaxation.

Perhaps you prefer more focused trigger point and myofascial release, providing more musculoskeletal balance and alignment?

Our Remedial Massage treatments provide more focused musculoskeletal alignment and balance. Assisting with relief from common discomforts of pregnancy and bringing awareness to postural and movement patterns.

Whichever your preference, each consultation begins with a short consultation before each treatment, to ensure your individual circumstances and needs are addressed. 

If this is your first Bellies & Bubs experience, or it's a new pregnancy (thank you for returning), please complete this online health form  so I can ensure the utmost care, consideration and safety measures are applied to each treatment. 

I recommend you read the *contraindications list* prior to booking an appointment, as some conditions of pregnancy, may not be suited to any bodywork.  If you're unsure, after reviewing the list, please don't hesitate to contact me for clarification.

Although discomfort in pregnancy is common, it is not normal. Your body has the amazing ability to provide biofeedback through pain receptors to tell you when it is not in balance.

If you are experiencing persistent back pain, pelvic & tailbone discomfort, glute tension, pelvic girdle & leg pain/cramps, rib pain, shoulder, neck and jaw discomfort or sinusitis tension; then our signature aligning & balancing remedial massage treatment can assist with musculo-skeletal alignment and balance.

Although 'deep tissue massage' in some conditions of pregnancy is not recommended; this treatment provides a firmer pressure with trigger point therapy, acupressure and may include gentle stretches with breath awareness.
Our remedial massage treatment includes additional tools to offer more awareness around creating positive daily and movement patterns.

This can also assist with providing your baby with a more balanced and aligned space AND an optimal position for labour and birth.
