A Simple Guide & Tips For Your Pregnancy Journey
Trying to relax is vital during this special time, but it can seem difficult, especially if you have a busy work schedule or already have young children looking after.
I am a mother of four, and my journey through each pregnancy was unique. I understand the emotional, hormonal and physiological changes that you need to manage through this beautiful experience, from preconception, through pregnancy and after your baby is born.
Relaxation can combat stress and develop resilience as this is important.
Arranging time for regular treatment throughout your pregnancy can be wonderful for self-care as through your three trimesters each one comes with its own hormonal and physiological changes.
This complementary therapy may assist in:
- Deep relaxation
- Morning sickness
- Relief from fatigue and anxiety
- Increase in energy levels
- Backache
- Breathlessness
- Depression
- Oedema
Post-natal Reflexology & Care
Trying to relax is vital during this special time, but it can seem difficult, especially if you have a busy work schedule or already have young children looking after.
Once you become a mum, it’s incredibly important for you to receive good care. After the physical and emotional changes of pregnancy, two or three postnatal therapy treatments can assist to re-balance your body. You can feel more energised and able to cope in your daily life.
If you have any questions about the therapy or if you would like to make an appointment with me in Kensal Rise, Wembley or another area of north west London, please click on 'Make a Booking' or any of the contact information.
