Massage, Aromatherapy and Reflexology

I have been a qualified holistic therapist since 1995. After finding reflexology and aromatherapy so beneficial during both my pregnancies, I decided to specialise in this area. I have completed a year long post graduate Maternity Reflexology course with Susanne Enzer, a Diploma in Pregnancy Massage with Suzanne Yates at Wellmother, a post graduate course in Fertility Reflexology with Barbara Scott at Seren Natural Fertility and an Aromatherapy in Pregnancy course.

Aromatherapy Massage

Aromatherapy combines therapeutic massage with the natural oils of plants to improve and maintain well-being. A comforting and nurturing massage can bring welcome relief to many common pregnancy related conditions such as lower back pain, sciatica, fluid retention, insomnia and anxiety. Mothers-to-be who experience the benefits of aromatherapy are more likely to be in touch with their own bodies and their pregnancies.

I am based at my clinic in Chapelfields, Coventry.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a natural therapy which uses specific points on the feet to balance the body, mind and spirit. Quite simply everything that happens in the body has a reflection in the feet and everything that happens in the feet is relayed to the body.

Maternity Reflexology is a wonderfully relaxing natural therapy which can really help with treating many minor disorders of pregnancy including: nausea, headaches, backache, fluid retention, stress and anxiety. Reflexology continues to establish its reputation and popularity by the effective results people experience. Research shows that regular reflexology aids pregnancy, birthing and relaxation.

Fertility Reflexology can be used as a stand-alone treatment to enhance your natural fertility or with conventional treatments such IUI, IVF and ICSI.
