WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE ?
Our team of pregnancy-focused allied health professionals offers personalized mind-body programs to help you enjoy a healthy pregnancy, relieve aches and pains and support your body's changing needs throughout the trimesters.
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Here are the services we provide and that we will tailor to your specific needs:
OSTEOPATHY
1 session per month
Osteopathy during pregnancy supports the changes in your body as they arise.
The treatments will ensure your body is well aligned and will help alleviate any pain that could cause tension. Osteopathic care in pregnancy is safe, effective and encouraged to prevent and treat issues, such as: lower back, hip, rib and groin pain, pelvic pain and instability, sciatica and nerve pain, breathing difficulties, reflux or constipation.
ACUPUNCTURE
1 session per month
Acupuncture can be helpful in improving blood supply to the uterus, reducing swelling to hands & feet, regulating digestion, easing back pain, reducing stress & improving sleep. Acupuncture is known to work on these common ailments of pregnancy by tweaking the central nervous system through the application of acupuncture needles in precise points of the body, creating changes & manipulating pain receptors in the body.
COACHING & COUNSELLING
Your pregnancy can be accompanied by lots of mixed emotions, questions and doubts about your changing body, your relationships, the birth or the early months of being a parent. Coaching and counselling can be a great way to share your concerns in a safe and supportive space and learn ways to manage your emotions, deal with stress and regain a sense of calm and confidence.
Additional services
Empower your birth
By practicing hypnobirthing techniques, women can experience reduced pain, shorter labor durations, and a greater sense of control and empowerment during the birthing process. Partners or birth companions are also encouraged to participate in the classes to provide support and learn how to assist the birthing mother effectively.
The Birth of a Mother
A self-paced online course for expecting mothers who want to learn how to be adequately supported in the first few months after giving birth. It includes an introduction to the transformative insight of Matrescence, resources to navigate change with confidence and step by step recommendations to fill in a postnatal plan: how to gather the inner and outer resources for a supportive and nurturing transition into motherhood.
Relax and Unwind
We offer pregnancy massages in the second and third trimester. Massage therapy during pregnancy is a wonderful complimentary choice for prenatal care. It is a healthy way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness.
