Shiatsu can help with pregnancy in many ways, from problems with conceiving, right through to post natal care for mother and baby. Many fathers even choose to receive Shiatsu during these times!

Common ailments of pregnancy can be alleviated such as back pain, restless legs, nausea, carpal tunnel syndrome, symphysis pubis disfunction (SPD), and anxiety.

Some women choose to have their Shiatsu practitioner attend their labour. It can be helpful to get a labour going, relieve labour pains, and reduce fatigue. Shiatsu supports a mothers natural ability to give birth to her baby without medical intervention.

SHIATSU is also valuable in the post natal period, helping to restore and support a mothers energy. A mother can be shown how to give Shiatsu to her baby, alleviating problems such as colic and difficulty getting off to sleep.

Birth preparation workshops are available for mothers and their birth partners, and training courses for Baby Shiatsu are available. Further enquiries are always welcome.
