Bajos aka herbal pelvic steams can greatly assist many clients. Speak to me if you're interested.

Bajo (Pelvic Steam) add half hr to visit: $70.00


Prenatal Bodywork


As a midwife, I have seen time and time again that receiving consistent, ongoing, therapeutic bodywork in pre conception and pregnancy makes for better birth outcomes.


Prenatal bodywork helps regulate the nervous system, improve lymph and cardiovascular circulation, digestive function and decrease stress; all of which in turn is felt by the baby in the womb.


Specific prenatal techniques balance the body, ease aches and pains, help to release musculoskeletal constriction and encourage baby in utero move into optimal fetal position for birth.


Recommended Visits in Pregnancy:

Once a month or more from 13-26 weeks

Every 2 weeks or more 27-36 weeks

Weekly 37-42 weeks


Preparing For Birth

Sessions from 37 weeks onwards can incorporate bajos (pelvic herbal steams) and acupressure to open and encourage the energies of birth.

Labor encouraging bodywork can begin at 39 weeks and may incorporate acupressure, cupping, specific herbal massage oils and ear seeds.


Initial Session, 1.5-2 hrs: $300.00

Follow Up Session 1-1.25hrs: $150.00

Bajo (Pelvic Steam) add half hr to visit: $70.00
