labour massage workshops now open!

I am very excited to announce I will now be running labour massage workshops for pregnant humans and their support person/people!

Labour and childbirth can be overwhelming particularly for the support team, and having something practical to do is priceless, especially something that you know will help the pregnant human and that you have received some training :)

I have received lots of feedback that support people can feel unsure of how to touch the labouring human, what they should be doing during this intense time and what practical steps they can take to be a really meaningful part of the experience.

So I developed this workshop, to be delivered in two 90 minute sessions, ideally at between 20 and 25 weeks for the initial and a return session at closer to birth-time, ideally between 30-35 weeks. This is designed so that the initial session will workshop and develop techniques and strategies for supporting the pregnant human in labour, following which you can take these skills away and practice them. The second workshop will refine and revise your skill-set so you feel ready to go :)
