Whether you are seeking relief from discomfort, tension or pain, or needing to destress and unwind, a therapeutic/relaxation massage will help address your needs.  At the beginning of the appointment we will discuss what you are wanting to address and plan the best way to do this within the session.  Therapeutic/Relaxation massage uses firm slow strokes to relieve muscle tension.  At times I may move your limbs to enhance the stretch and movement of a particular muscle.

Post natal massage offers relief from tension created by feeding and caring for your baby, as well as helping your body recover from the birthing process.  It is common to experience back, neck and shoulder pain from the amount of time spent holding and feeding your new baby and massage can help relieve some of this tension.  It is also common to experience low back and pelvis pain as your body readjusts to it previous posture and your tendons, ligaments and muscles realign themselves.  Post Natal massage is safe from 4 weeks on but if you are still under your midwife's care please seek approval from her before booking. It is preferable for you to leave your baby at home in someone else's care so that you can concentrate on yourself however, if this is not possible you are welcome to bring them in a car seat freshly fed and changed so that they will hopefully sleep!  Sessions are tailored to your needs but can include some gentle abdominal work to help you reconnect with these muscles.

Ending a massage with the face and scalp is the ultimate in relaxation.  I use Lisa Goodeve 100% Natural Skincare Renew Facial Oil so you not only get a gorgeous face massage but your skin gets a moisture and antioxidant boost and you will leave glowing.  You need to be makeup free for this service.

Face and Scalp Massage

Abdominal massage can be deeply soothing but mentally and physically as we often hold a lot of stress, anxiety and emotion in our stomachs.  Abdominal massage is gentle and can help to relax the muscles, fascia and connective tissue of he abdominal cavity and surrounding organs.  It can also help with digestion and bloating.  There is a large amount of lymph nodes in the stomach and massage can help promote drainage of this part of the lymphatic system.

Abdominal Massage

Do you have tired or sore hands? We use our hands and fingers all day every day so why not treat them to a dedicated massage.  Add this 15 minute hand massage to your massage to help them relax and ease tension.  I use either massage balm or Lisa Goodeve's Nourishing Body Butter.

Hand massage

Love a foot massage?  Suffer from painful or tired feet? Add this to your massage for a dedicated 15 minute foot massage using either massage balm or Lisa Goodeve's Nourishing Body Butter.
