Pregnancy Reflexology

Reflexology reduces your stress levels and therefore the possibility of complications during pregnancy. It’s also a great way to prepare your body for birth naturally by helping to relax the pelvic area.

 

Studies* show that women who have reflexology during pregnancy:

​

• Have significantly less pain during labour

• Experience shorter first stage labour

• Sleep better post pregnancy

 

Regular treatments can help to manage, prevent and relieve many symptoms experienced during pregnancy, including;

​​

• Constipation

• Discomfort

• Heartburn

• Swollen feet and legs

• Itching

• Pelvic and lower back pain

• Dizziness

• Headaches

• Tiredness and breathlessness

​

Reflexology is not recommended in the first trimester of pregnancy due to a lack of research in the field.

I would recommend monthly treatments throughout the second and third trimester with weekly treatments from 36 or 37 weeks until when your baby is born.

 

One session can be a wonderful relaxing treatment for an expectant mum and make a great gift; if you are looking to prepare for labour then I would recommend a minimum of three weekly treatments prior to your due date.
