Conception & Pregnancy

Whether you're planning a pregnancy, are already pregnant, or have recently given birth, I know that it is very special but sometimes difficult time, and one during which your well-being is of paramount importance.

Reflexology is a wonderful way to support your body, and your partner's, when you are trying to conceive, and through the changes of pregnancy, whilst giving you time to fully relax, and reap the benefits that relaxation brings. It is a non-invasive and gentle treatment, which amongst other things may encourage better sleep, improve your mood and promote a general sense of well-being. 

It is too easy to overlook your own wellbeing once the baby arrives, but remembering that you cannot pour from an empty cup, I encourage every new Mum to set aside some time for yourself to relax and replenish. As I work on a mobile basis this saves you the hassle and time of travelling, when you may be busy and potentially less mobile than usual. Your treatment can also take place whilst your baby is sleeping nearby, or even during a feed; whatever is best for you!

If you are thinking of booking treatments throughout your pregnancy, I recommend commencing regular treatments at the beginning of the 2nd trimester, increasing in frequency as you near your due date. The pregnancy treatment bundles I offer allow you to pre-purchase a package of treatments at a discounted price. At the time of purchase you only need to book in the first treatment, and can book in subsequent treatments as you need them, subject to availability.

Baby Showers

Why not include a Reflexology treatment as part of a friend's baby shower? Arrange for her to enjoy a wonderful Reflexology session whilst you prepare the rest of the event. She'll love it!

Additional Conception Support

During the conception journey it is important to support both prospective parents; encouraging relaxation, the release of tension, better sleep, and re-balancing. For this reason I offer the Pre-Conception treatment bundle allowing you to purchase a pass valid for 8 treatments at a discount of 10%, the use of which can be shared between both partners as preferred.

When starting out on your journey it can be very helpful to check whether either partner is in need of any assistance or lifestyle changes to optimise the chances of conceiving. As such I am delighted to work with The Male Fertility Clinic which is an independent provider of semen analysis testing, located in the heart of London Victoria.  They provide a convenient and friendly service, with a quick turnaround time for results. In their own words:

"As increasing pressures make it difficult to access male fertility testing via the NHS, The Male Fertility Clinic offers a quick and reliable pathway to accessing these important test results. A comprehensive report is available within just three working days, with the option to choose same day results for a small additional fee.  We also offer follow up consultations so patients can confidently understand how to move forwards on their fertility journey."

I offer small group reflexology sessions to suit mother and baby group get-togethers, with 30 minute treatments for each of you, whilst your friends enjoy a catch-up, and can look after your little one. The recommended group size would be 3 - 4.
