PREGNANCY MASSAGE
Nurturing pregnancy massage to help adapt to a changing body, give some time and space for relaxation and soothe aching muscles.
POSTNATAL MASSAGE
The early months with a newborn can be emotionally and physically tiring. These sessions offer mums space to be themselves, get some headspace and allow some essential time to relax and restore.
" I had a beautiful, intricate pregnancy massage with Emilie yesterday!
Probably the most relaxed I've ever been, ever. "- Hannah
“Emilie was super attentive. Her level of pressure was exactly as we talked about and there was plenty of opportunity to adjust if necessary.
A lovely massage.”

"I recently saw Emilie Rowell in Frome as I had a very bad back. She specialises in pregnancy massage and I'd highly recommend."
Kerry Munden-Starr
"Lovely calm cosy atmosphere and a really gentle soothing massage. Emilie had everything on hand to make me and bump super comfortable. Was just what I needed to help stay relaxed leading up-to baby’s arrival.."

POSTPARTUM MASSAGE
WHAT TO EXPECT
Improve circulation
- helping the blood flow freely through the body and providing more oxygen to both mum and child.
Studies show up to 15% more oxygen after a massage.
Sooth the nervous system
- promoting emotional wellbeing.
Serotonin and dopamine are released during massage as well as endorphins that act as natural painkillers and help with stress or depression.-
Relief from aches & pains
- eases tense muscles in the body.
Soothing touch improves blood circulation and releases endorphins like seratonin - the body's built-in painkiller.
Better sleep
People normally sleep well after a massage. The feeling of deep relaxation in your body, combined with all the feel-good hormones are often the recipe for sweet dreams.
Reduce swelling
Swollen feet and ankles can be part of later pregnancy for many women. Light-touch lymphatic drainage helps to aleiviate symptoms.
Headspace
Time for you to mentally unwind as well as physically. It can be hard to adapt to the changes of pregnancy and new motherhood. Having time to just be you can be really valuable.
