Heavily pregnant my back ached, my feet swelled and sleeplessness became my new foe. Then Jill and her magic hands were recommended to me!
And so began a journey, for an hour a week, into the most wonderful calm world that not only relieved aches and pains, but eased away stress and tension. After each session I would float home with an overwhelming feeling of wellbeing and connection to my body and baby.
Beyond the massage itself, Jill provided incredible support. Her knowledge of pregnancy and her ability to point me to fantastic resources was beyond anything that could have been expected. Anything from supports for sleep, ideas for relieving sore muscles and ligaments at home, natural pain relief for labour to baby slings! If I asked - Jill was onto it.
Jill is a treasure.
With love

Methods - Pregnancy Massage
Touching the Future-This massage has been designed for the special needs of the pregnant woman. It changes and adapts throughout the trimesters. Massage during pregnancy will help to relieve aches and pains, promote blood flow, give relief from fluid retention (reduce swelling) and aid in relaxation. It is widely thought that regular massage throughout the pregnancy can reduce the labour time. This massage can create significant physiological, structural, psychological, relational and spiritual changes in a woman’s life.
A relaxing and rejuvenating experience for mothers and their bubs to be. A pregnancy massage is a beneficial physical experience as well as emotionally relaxing. Pregnancy impacts the body in many ways, from increases in blood volume to extra weight on the skeleton, it can make moving through space challenging at best. A pregnancy massage provides a bit of relief while facilitating better health for mother and child. Pre/Post Natal massage provides a well-deserved break for the new mother. (Note: New dads often find they enjoy the benefits a Karool Massage offers them as well).
