Pregnancy Reflexology
Pregnancy Reflexology
Pregnancy is a very special time in a woman’s life, but it is not without its share of ups and downs, as the body goes through a lot of physical and emotional upheavals. Did you know that Pregnancy Reflexology can be an effective natural solution?
Reflexology promotes deep relaxation, balances the body’s energy and prepares the body for labour. Regular Reflexology treatments during pregnancy help to alleviate the discomforts that pregnancy can bring – both physically from symptoms such as morning sickness, lower back ache and puffy ankles, and emotionally by helping take the edge off the hormonal imbalance and bringing deep relaxation instead, allowing the nervous system to soothe and calm.
Treatment can take place during the first 12 weeks to support the pregnancy, reduce anxiety levels, soothe any symptoms of morning sickness, and help ease the impact of an IVF protocol. Or, if you prefer, you can commence treatment once you have had your 12 week scan. Either way, the benefits are palpable all the way through your pregnancy, encouraging labour when the times comes.
During pregnancy, you may experience some of the following:
General Pregnancy Discomfort Anxiety
Shoulder tension and lower back ache
Constipation
Fatigue
Headaches
Heartburn
High blood pressure
Morning sickness
Oedema, particularly puffy ankles
As you get closer to your due date, treatment can help to encourage the onset of labour and again, ease symptoms if you are overdue.
Pregnancy Reflexology can help to alleviate the discomfort
Post Birth, there are benefits too:
Boosting energy levels and circulation
Rebalancing the hormones
Alleviating the affects of Post natal depression
Rebalancing the emotional disruption that hormones can bring
Stimulating bowel & urinary function Bringing relaxation and a little ‘me-time’
If you would like to book a Pregnancy Reflexology or Post Natal treatment, just contact me via the link below. I am based in Weybridge, Surrey and my details can be found on my Contact page.
If you are unable to come and see me in person, I also have a couple of Self Hypnotherapy Downloads to use during your First and Second Trimesters. I have created these specially to ease anxiety in the early stages of pregnancy so I’m sure you’d find them useful.
