Maternity Reflexology is a specialist modality under the umbrella of general reflexology. The benefits of this therapy can be seen in the number of midwives in both Australia and England who have embraced and trained in this particular therapy.

The treatment options cover all aspects of pregnancy including infertility, conception, pregnancy, birth and post partum care. The Endocrine Balance Technique (EBT) is particularly useful for women who are either wishing to become pregnant or already pregnant.

Ante Natal

· Reflexology can help with stimulation of ovulation, removal of emotional blocks to conception, regulation of periods, dysmenorrhoea, cleansing & detoxification of parents for conscious conception.

· Reflexology will not add any value in conception if clients elect to use IVF or Clomid, however reflexology will aid relaxation, an important requirement for effective conception.

During pregnancy

· Reflexology balances hormones which may alleviate morning sickness and post natal depression.

· Other conditions relieved with reflexology therapy may include oedema, dislocation of the pubis symphysis and lower back pain.

· Along with relaxation, reflexology supports and empowers mothers-to-be so that they are relaxed and ready to deliver their babies.

Post Partum

· Reflexology has been documented to benefit those women who suffer or are at risk of suffering Post Natal Depression (PND).

· A reflexologist is also able to help babies who are suffering from colic, constipation, reflux or sleeping difficulties.
