Doula (Birth Support)
A Doula's role is to nurture and support women and their partners through labour and birth. A Doula offers help and advice on comfort measures such as breathing, relaxation, movement and positioning. As a Doula, Autumn will also assist the women and their partners to become informed about the course of their labour and their options, as well as being available to support families post-natally.
"Autumn, the support you provided to my partner and I during Oscar's birth was immesurable. You helped to keep us grounded and we felt very safe knowing that you were there with us during the whole experience. Thank you!" - Holly (March 2011)
Pre-Natal Massage/Reiki
Pre-natal massage (& / or Reiki) can assist with many issues during pregnancy including muscular aches and pains, structural discomfort, insomnia, swelling and fluid retention, hormonal headaches, stress and so on. Even for those experiencing a pain & stress-free pregnancy, massage is a great way of allowing pregnant women an opportunity for some quiet time to relax & connect with their babies.
Post-Natal Massage/Reiki
Did you know that the post-natal 'recovery' period for many or most women is at least 12 months, up to approximately 2 years?
After the body has had an opportunity to return to 'normal' after giving birth most women are still required to put their bodies under different types of stresses, such as lifting babies in & out of cars & prams, breast-feeding and so on. Post-natal massage can assist with supporting the body as it re-adjusts itself, as well as ironing out any new aches & pains. Post-natal Reiki is wonderful for supporting women emotionally as they make the transition into their new & sometimes very demanding role as a mother.
Both modalities allow women some quiet time totally to themselves.
In-Hospital Treatments (Pre & Post-Natal)
Autumn is available for hospital treatments & her sessions can be adapted to suit women at any stage in their pregnancy or immediately after giving birth. Each treatment is specifically designed around the needs & requirements of the individual woman & can be modified to accommodate any restrictions.
Infant Massage Classes
These classes allow parents the opportunity to bond & connect with their babies through massage and give parents the confidence to practice the techniques learned in the classes. Amongst other things, infant massage can support some of the issues that new parents commonly experience, such as improving sleep, reducing crying & assisting with colic.
Run over a four week period (1 hour per week), these classes are great for mums &/or dads. Parents-to-be are also welcome to attend & are able to practice the techniques on dolls designed for learning infant massage.
