"To be a mother is to take on one of the most emotionally and intellectually demanding, exasperating, strenuous, anxiety-arousing and deeply satisfying tasks that any human being can undertake.” Sheila Kitzinger – Ourselves as Mothers.
A Time of Joy and Challenges.
The birth of your baby will bring joy, exhilaration and profound changes and challenges to your life. As you make your transition into motherhood not only do you have to adapt to your non-pregnant state, but also to changes within your family, not to mention caring for your dependent baby 24/7. In many traditional cultures women receive a daily massage in the 30 days following the birth of their babies! We think it's about our society rediscovered the importance of nurturing new mothers as they do the rewarding yet challenging task of caring for their child.
Supporting Mum and Baby.
Receiving specialist post-natal massage is a wonderful way to heal and ease the discomforts in your body following your pregnancy & birth, improve energy levels and to ensure that you are also receiving nurturing support as you mother your child.
Post - Natal massage is not a luxury for a new mum - it's a necessity!
New Bloom Post Natal Massage.
Exclusive to Bella Mama, the New Bloom Post Natal Massage and Herbal Belly Wrap is a treatment designed to soothe and support you following your pregnancy and birth.
Following a detailed consultation, your post-natal massage will be especially designed to ease any discomforts you have following your pregnancy & birth such as back pain and/or feeding shoulders. Acupressure points and stretches will be used to improve your energy levels and allow you to relax, whilst specific abdominal massage techniques help to tone and tighten stretched skin and muscle.
Javenese Herbal Belly Wrap.
Following your massage, your tummy will be covered with a herbal poultice. This "Jamu" herbal paste is a traditional Javanese post-natal treatment and is designed to help tone the abdominal skin and to warm and soothe the internal organs and muscle. This will be firmly wrapped to help support the lower back and flatten the tummy and is meant to be worn all day and removed at night.
For best results it's recommended to have 6 - 8 New Bloom treatments following the birth of your baby.
