NMT, Neuro-Muscular Therapy Techniques with Annaleise Gamble

Focusing on normalising the functioning of your body's nervous system to bring about optimal balance of your body as a whole rather than a specific area. This is done by:

• correcting postural distortion
• treating trigger points
• removing points of nerve compression or entrapment
• improving ischaemic muscle tissue, which suffers poor blood supply & over sensitivity.

During pregnancy, childbirth & the months that follow, your entire body system has to make many changes. NMT can help to restore the balance of you as a whole. It can help keep you supple during the pregnancy, relax & prepare you physically & emotionally for the birth of your child & speed up the process of reconfiguration afterwards. 

Acupuncture with Dominic Rushmore

Is Acupuncture safe?

Acupuncture is very safe to have during pregnancy & is an effective option at a time when many women choose to avoid taking medication for minor ailments.

How can Acupuncture help during pregnancy?

Many conditions which routinely crop up during pregnancy would benefit from a natural solution. Acupuncture, when provided by a trained practitioner, can give relief for a range of pregnancy related conditions:

• morning sickness
• high/ low blood pressure
• anxiety
• tiredness
• constipation
• tender breasts
• migraine and other head aches
• back ache

An acupuncture technique called Moxibustion  has been used for many centuries to turn breech babies.

After the birth Acupuncture is used by new mothers to increase energy levels, to promote healing and to combat the 'baby blues'. It is also very helpful in treating mastitis.

Holistic Massage, Pre-Natal, Post- Natal Massage with Natalia Bowles

Holistic massage is an individual treatment that is specifically tailored to each client. A holistic practitioners treats the client as a whole being, taking into account their emotional & spiritual well-being, as well as their physical body. The most important massage benefit during & after pregnancy and in general is relaxation, managing stress & anxiety. Hormonal balance can be aided through deep relaxation, activating our parasympathetic nervous system (opposite to 'fight or flight'). This will positively affect all the body systems and create an overall feeling of well-being, which is very important for the mum & baby.

Massage is a non invasive way to soothe musculo-skeletal aches & pains, SPD (pelvic pain) and manage other pregnancy symptoms such as:

• oedema
• poor circulation
• blood pressure imbalance
• digestive issues
• fatigue and more.

Post-Natal Massage is just as important as pre-natal massage, helping new mums to recover, cope with baby blues, tiredness, body aches & pains. Abdominal massage can help to stimulate & relax over worked muscles, reduce adhesions in and around the uterus.
