Reflexology is a wonderful therapy for Mums-to-be and many women choose to have regular treatment throughout their pregnancy. It can help with common ailments and help you prepare mentally and physically for the birth. It is also wonderfully relaxing! Increasingly, clients come to me because their midwife has suggested reflexology.
Consider starting reflexology treatment from 12 weeks onwards. The frequency of treatment will depend on you. You will probably wish to increase treatment during the third trimester. As a regular client I will be pleased to offer you home treatment in the last few weeks before the birth if you wish.
I recommend buying a copy of ‘The Gentle Birth Method’ by Dr Gowri Motha and Karen Swan MacLeod. ISBN: 0-00-717684-8. This is a programme to follow throughout pregnancy to help prepare happily and healthily for the birth of your baby. Reflexology is a key element. (The book is included in my ‘Mum-to-be’ Reflexology Package, an ideal gift.)
