Pregnancy and Post natal massage

Pre natal massage. pre natal massage is specifically tailored to provide relaxation, space and connection between mother and baby. It is beneficial to relieve aches and pains that are specific to pregnancy, as your body changes and grows to accommodate your baby.

Post natal massage. With a new baby to care for and nurture it can be hard to find some previous time to yourself, but keeping yourself healthy and happy is even more important now. As a new mum, your focus and energy is mainly all on your baby . Taking an hour or 90 minutes out to consider and focus in on your needs both physically and mentally can be restorative and much needed time out for yourself.

Massage can be book with Clare via the Ayurvedic Massage page on the website.

My sessions with Clare have made me feel more positive about my body again. Clare paid attention to every single detail to help with all my particular issues (back, stomach muscle separation and pelvic instability after pregnancy). I started to see improvements after just a couple of sessions.

Yang to Yin Extended class - A journey through the five Koshas 💛Join Karren on Friday 25th April for a gloriously relaxing session.We’ll journey through the five koshas - the layers of our being, using movement, breath, and stillness. The koshas, often described as energetic sheaths, offering a roadmap to self-awareness, moving from the most tangible aspects of our body to the subtle layers of our mind and soul. We’ll begin with dynamic yang practices to awaken and energise the Annamaya (physical) and Pranamaya (energetic) koshas. Then we'll gradually slow down into deep Yin postures, allowing us to explore the Manomaya (mental), Vijnanamaya (wisdom), and Anandamaya (bliss) koshas.Yang to Yin Extended class - A journey through the five Koshas.Friday 25th April 7pm - 8.30pmBook your space ⬇️backoffice.bsport.io/customer/payment/offer/25213748?membership=490 ...
