Woman’s Wellness Massage
This beautiful bespoke massage experience will support your wellbeing on every level - body, mind and soul - on any particular day or time in your life.
We will focus on specific areas to relieve tension using hands-on soft tissue techniques - neck, back, shoulders and head - or the body as a whole. We can bring balance to the digestive system, wombspace and sacral area and gently ease stiffness in the hips and glutes - rocking with a rebozo Mexican cloth. We can wrap, bind and hold you, to soothe the nervous system, helping to process any anxiety or stress. The healing Tibetan Goddess singing bowl will be placed on you, so that the vibrations flow wherever they are needed, whilst you release and relax.60 minutes is the minimum - 90 mins recommended!
Great for everyday wellness and perimenopause/postmenopause symptoms.
£80 - 90 minutes, £100 - 120 minutes
Womb & fertility massage
A Womb massage is great at any time of life as it supports your everyday wellbeing. It is so nurturing, helping you to feel well rested and good in yourself (even after a hysterectomy)
It is also very helpful for many blood-cycle related problems and if you are trying to conceive a baby, undergoing any fertility treatments, recently had a baby, if you are peri or post menopausal or simply feeling a bit 'stuck' creatively.
This unique massage is hands-on. Combining abdominal massage, pulsing techniques and ceremonial ‘rebozo’ rocking, wrapping & binding .
We focus on reproductive and digestive systems and the lower back - as our abdominal region is serviced by common neural pathways, connecting the organs, muscles and connective tissue of the reproductive and digestive systems, as well as the lower back muscles.
If one organ or muscle is misaligned, blocked or damaged by scar tissue, it can cause disruption to the whole body.
This therapy supports menstrual health & unresolved emotional, digestive and reproductive issues:
Reproductive: menstrual and ovulation problems, bladder or yeast infections, miscarriages or difficult pregnancies, menopause-related, fertility, PMS/depression, cysts, endometriosis, heavy bleeds, uterine bleeding, fibroids, migraines.
Emotional: sexual or childhood trauma, miscarriages and stillbirth, stress, maternal or held-in problems
Digestive: constipation, diarrhoea, IBS, bloating, stomach cramps.
If you are trying to conceive, please book an appointment in the first half of your cycle. It is best to not to have a massage when you are bleeding.
Your initial consultation will be for 2 hours to full understand your needs and to give supporting information. Massages thereafter will be 90 minutes.
Packages are available for a series of 6 massages
Initial consultation - £100 for 120 minutes
£80 for 90 minutes
Package - £220 for 3 massages , £420 for 6 massages (including consultation)
Postpartum Closing the bones ceremony
Postpartum Closing the Bones is done in the first few months of birth (a minimum of 6 hours postpartum!*).
Naomi comes to you, so you can fully relax at home with your baby. It is wonderful to have a number done in the forth trimester/40 days post birth (as is traditionally done) and helps the new parent integrate the birthing process, bringing energy back to their creative centre (the womb). Closing the Bones encourages the internal organs return to their natural space and the muscles and ligaments around the belly to relax, improving circulation, supporting lymphatic drainage, breastfeeding and the removal of excess fluids.
*this will differ if you have had a Caesarean section.
1 x 2hr session - £125 at home (£110 in therapy room)
3 x 2hr session - £340 at home (£300 in therapy room)
Closing the bones
Closing the bones is not limited to immediate postpartum and can actually be performed decades later to honour this major right of passage. The ceremony is extremely beneficial to bring closure to, to recognise and own major events or Rites of Passage in our lives—times of great upheaval, distress or joy that change us.
The ribs, abdomen, hips, womb and upper body are massaged with warming & nourishing oils. A traditional Rebozo/manta/shawl is used to gently rock the whole body, sifting, wrapping and binding - especially the hips - which stimulates circulation & energy and promotes physical, mental, emotional healing. Once bound in 8 ceremonial hand-weaved rebozos, you are held in a cocoon-like space, in a manner that feels appropriate (between us): in silence, meditation, guided meditation, visualisation, with sound healing or energy work. You continue to integrate the experience whilst enjoying a soothing herbal tea after your massage.
This massage will take place in the therapy room and can be 90 or 120 minutes
1 x 1.5hr session - £80 (in the therapy room)
1 x 2hr session - £110
3 x 2hr session - £300
