Deeply Relaxing & Nurturing Care for You and Your Baby

Pregnancy is a time of incredible transformation, and prioritising rest, relaxation, and self-care is essential—for both you and your baby.

Our bespoke pregnancy massage is designed to fully support your journey, adapting to your unique needs for the most comforting and restorative experience.

This side-lying, full-body massage incorporates gentle rocking, pressing, and soft tissue techniques, using specially formulated, natural essential oils safe for pregnancy. We focus on relieving areas of discomfort while ensuring your entire body feels nurtured. After massaging both sides, you’ll sit up for a soothing face, head, and bump massage to complete the experience.

Massage can help ease aches and pains, reduce stress, and support emotional well-being as your body prepares for birth. It also boosts endorphins, leaving you feeling deeply relaxed and reconnected. Each session is uniquely tailored and may include meditation, breathwork, or movement suggestions to enhance your overall well-being.

For an even more immersive and therapeutic experience, we can incorporate breathwork, sound therapy, and guided meditation into your session.

Take this time for yourself—relax, release, and restore. Book your pregnancy massage today.
