Bodywork
While I officially entered the world of bodywork and physical tending in 2021 with the beginning of my Craniosacral Therapy training, the foundations of this work had begun many years before through my studies in counselling, postpartum health and care, embodied movement, facilitating group work and my previous introduction to Maya womb healing as a participant.
I see myself as ‘Mothering the Mother’ and provide loving, skillful care to Mothers at any stage of their journey - from preconception and fertility, throughout pregnancy and into birth preparation, after birth/postpartum, all the way to peri and post menopause.
Mothers deserve, and need, spaces to let go and be held.
To be seen for the enormity of the work they do and to be tended with care so that they can heal and thrive.
Do you:
♢ Need support in preparing/trying to conceive?
♢ Feel pain and/or intense discomfort in your body throughout pregnancy?
♢ Feel depleted, “touched out”, anxious and/or in burn-out?
♢ Have a sore back, pelvis, neck, jaw, head?
♢ Have menstrual imbalances and/or extreme pain when you bleed?
♢ Have a cesarean scar that feels sore, numb, uncomfortable and/or restrictive?
♢ Have painful sex, bladder incontinence and/or a prolapse?
If you answered yes or maybe to any of the above, book in a session and let’s see if together we can give your body what it needs to heal.
Keep scrolling to read more about the different modalities I am trained in and how they may be supportive for your healing journey.
Craniosacral Therapy
Is a gentle, non-invasive and incredibly potent modality that works with the pace of the body to promote deep nervous system healing, greater alignment of the bones, organs and tissues of the body to encourage optimal functioning.
This work can be very supportive during preconception and fertility journeys, throughout pregnancy, in preparation for birth and in the postpartum period.

Tulíx Therapy
This beautiful modality of work is a transmission from the renowned Maya H’Men (Doctor-Priest) Don Elijio Panti of Belize.
This work brings together manual bodywork techniques that encompass the whole body, as well as a strong cultural lineage of spiritual (energetic) healing.
With a particular focus on aligning the womb and tending to the belly/abdomen for optimal blood, lymph, fluid and chu’lel (energy) flow. This work also encompasses beautiful techniques to support the whole birthing spectrum and is often done in conjunction with other modalities for specialised fertility journeys.

Holistic Pelvic Care™
A potent blend of physical and energetic work within the pelvic bowl (“floor”).
Combining internal fascia release, vaginal massage and trigger-point therapy, with guided breath and visualisation.
Helps bring a deeper awareness and embodiment of this vital part of a person’s body, so that you truly inhabit your body.

Cesarean Scar Tissue Work
‘Cesarean Scar Tissue Release & Rehabilitation’ is a specialty bodywork training module delivered by Madelaine Longrigg from Body Lane.
This work was created to support Mothers who have had a cesarean surgery delivery of their baby; incorporating myofascial release techniques, the use of tools such as cupping and gua sha, and a large emphasis on the breath and releasing any restrictions throughout the entire abdomen that may be contributing to scar tissue dysfunction.
