Winding and Calming Baby 1:1. Is your baby pulling their legs up, unsettled over night? grunting and distressed?
I cannot understand why this information is not taught when you’ve had your baby but so many women/couples/parents are left without adequate information and practise to wind their baboes effectively. If you baby is uncomfortable, I’m here to help. I will be showing you effective, simple but SO needed winding and calming holds, movements to release trapped wind and prevent it from getting into their lower digestive systems. I explain everything so you have a good understanding of why the technique works and I’m then available for other questions after the session – i dont believe you can remember everything, so I’m available on whats app if you have a question for 2 weeks afterwards. One to one Zoom call £40/1hr or £60 for up to 3hours. Book on email Louise@mindbodyandbump.co.uk
I have pre-recorded some short instructional videos on Reflexology which I think you’ll find really useful at a time when you can’t recieve these treatments in person.
🤰 Pregnancy relaxation foot massage (reflexology for anxiety) video. Are you experiencing worry, anxiety, maybe lack of sleep , insomnia or palpitations? As a maternity reflexologist with 17 years experience wirking daily with pregnant women’s feet, I’ve done my best for you in these strange times, due to social distancing I am unable to give you the foot treatment I know could help your body and mind deal with the stress, and NOONE should feel like that when expecting a baby. So, instead I put together some of the best relaxation techniques in a short video your partner or someone at home can give you in the comfort of your own home. Aditionally to your meditation, yoga or other relaxing routine, a good foot treatment using the right trigger points will help your mind and body relax and let go of the tension causing worry. £10 or x2 for £15 Email Louise@mindbodyandbump.co.uk for your video.
🤰 Overdue Reflexology suitable from 37weeks instructional home video.
Regular Reflexology form 37 weeks has been proven to shorten labour by up to 4 hours and encourage a spontaneous labour on or around your estimated due date. I’m so sorry I can’t do this for all the amazing prgnant women out here by giving this amazing and effective foot treatment. The best I can do is to show you some foot massage techniques you can do safely via video, so I’ve created one for you £10 or x2 for £15 Email Louise@mindbodyandbump.co.uk for your video.
🤰 TENS Machine for pain relief in Labour. I show you a TENS machine, what it does, when and how to use it. The pitfalls and pros of using it. £10 or x2 for £15 Email Louise@mindbodyandbump.co.uk for your video.
