PREGNANCY MASSAGE & EMMETT TECHNIQUE FOR PRENATAL CARE

 

“To be a mother is to take on one of the most emotionally and intellectually demanding, exasperating, strenuous, anxiety-arousing, and deeply satisfying tasks that any human being can undertake”. Sheila Kitzinger.

You and your baby will love this nurturing pregnancy massage and gentle Emmett Therapy Technique. It is a perfect way to alleviate some of the discomforts of pregnancy  such as lower back pain, sciatica, swollen ankles and legs, carpel tunnel pain, or to assist you to just relax, unwind and increase your energy levels making it easier to cope with the changes you are experiencing during your pregnancy.

 

WHAT IT IS AND HOW YOU CAN BENEFIT Prenatal massage shares many of the goals of regular massage; improved circulation and mobility, ease sore spots, relax tense muscles and reduce stress and relief from heartburn. Lower back, abdomen and shoulder strain and pain can be greatly reduced through massage and Emmett Therapy. Pregnancy massage is a particularly effective form of healthcare during pregnancy, offering a wide range of benefits to both you and your baby. Pregnancy can be an emotional roller coaster, emotions can fluctuate. Massage, Emmett Therapy and knowledgeable touch can help alleviate some of these.   HOW IT WORKS During pregnancy, pregnancy specific massage can safely, comfortably, and effectively relieve stress, whether it is physical or emotional. Using Emmett Therapy and  pregnancy massage can reduce the effect of many of the most common problems a pregnant woman might experience. Pregnancy massage promotes much needed rest and relaxation, and in utero your baby can respond in the same way. Individualised hands-on time with an experienced, caring practitioner supports reduced muscle tension and relaxation for pregnant women.

 

HOW I WORK WITH CLIENTS

It is always a privilege to work with a mum to be, and it is wonderful to see her become relaxed and to notice the baby responding and settling down as well

I tailor the sessions specifically to the needs of you and your changing body.

I use my signature soft flowing style of massage that is safe and effective and encourages total relaxation of the body and the mind. I also use the Emmett technique to release any muscle tension in a gentle non invasive method.The pregnancy massage and Emmett thechnique will help you to unwind, feel serene, healthy and comforted during a period of what can sometimes be an added physical and emotional stress.

For the safety and health of your baby I use organic jojoba oil, which is also a great moisturiser for your skin as well.

OTHER WAYS I CAN ASSIST YOU AFTER THE BIRTH

POST NATAL MASSAGE

Equally as important is massage and Emmett therapy after the birth. They not only help restore the physical body to the new mum, but also helps to revive her emotional state as well. When the mum feels good about herself, it is easier to meet the needs of her newborn.

 

BABIES HAVING TROUBLE LATCHING ON DURING FEEDING

I can assist with babies who are having trouble turning their head to the breast for feeding, which in turn can create nipple soreness for mum and wind or colic for baby. You may notice your baby sleeping with a preference for one side which may cause a flat spot on their head as well. Using a safe Emmett move can greatly assist your baby to be able to turn their head both ways.

 

INCONTINENCE $50 emmett technique

Unfortunately some women can end up with bladder incontinence after the birth. This can be embarrassing, inconvenient and have a huge effect on a person's self-esteem and lifestyle. Don't suffer with this. I have had great success with clients by using a technique I learnt during my training to solve this particular embarrassing problem.
