Reiki for Pregnancy
Reiki re-balances the body's natural energy flow.
My hands are placed gently on, or near to, the body , and all that is required of you is to lay relaxing on the massage couch under a cosy blanket throughout!
During pregnancy, Reiki can bring a wonderful sense of relaxation in what can be an emotional, stressful and busy time of transition.
Reviving your personal energy flow, Reiki can help to ground you, find clarity and calm during pregnancy and in the lead up to birthing your baby. It can even help in labour! (subject to availability!)
Reiki can also be combined with other treatments and even 121 yoga - please contact me for details.

Rebozo in Pregnancy
Using a Rebozo (a traditional kind of scarf from Mexico), as a relaxation / birth preparation tool can be very effective.
In these sessions, the Rebozo techniques involve some light wrapping, with comforting, rhythmic rocking and swaying, often like massage, helping to:
-
loosen tight ligaments around the pelvis, and
-
relax muscular and fascia tension, therefore
-
encourage baby into a good position for birth
-
ease aches and pains in the lower back or pelvis
-
relieve pressure and "heaviness" of the bump
-
promote relaxation & confidence for birth
-
increase bonding with your baby and partner
Partners are welcome to attend, (and I can show you techniques you can use together).

I had three treatments with Pippa during my third trimester and all were incredible. Across the three, I had combinations of Indian head massage, shoulders, back and neck massage, facial massage, full body Thai massage and reiki - Pippa is multi-talented! I left her lovely wooden cabin each time feeling nurtured, warm and fuzzy. Her treatments are a proper treat at any time but particularly during pregnancy when rest and relaxation is so needed.
As well as these, my husband and I also had a Rebozo session with Pippa. Learning how to use this scarf to alleviate some of my pregnancy aches and pains was really helpful and it also gave my husband a lovely way to help me carry some of the weight of our little one.
I'd really recommend her :) - Laura
Pippa's treatments are incredible!
I have had both the Indian Head Massage and Closing The Bones ceremony, and both were highly therapeutic, beneficial and excellent value for money. - Natalie
I first had a Reiki treatment with Pippa when I was really stressed at 8 months pregnant.
I found it remarkably relaxing and calming, and felt a soothing warmth in my body. It was lovely, so relaxing. It really helped me to keep calm and focused before the birth. - Lara
