Pregnancy and postnatal Treatments
The reason Greene Wellbeing exists is all down to how I felt in the early days of becoming a mum and the wish to have a massage therapist living with me. This became the foundations in the early days which led to a full pregnancy menu and then sessions continuing for new mums.
Continuation of care for my clients when they choose to start a family is so important to me along with welcoming new clients to feel comfortable in their pregnancy massage sessions.
When little people arrive we then easily move into the postnatal period from our pregnancy sessions to nurture and ease the body and for those experiencing massage at Greene Wellbeing for the first time as new mums then all is explained in a detailed consultation after birth.
Postnatally I have 2 practitioners I also advice clients visit for mummy mot detailed postnatal care.
Babies are welcome at Greene Wellbeing, please book your session on a Saturday if you'd like to bring your little one.
I believe massage is always important however during this period I feel it goes to a slightly different level of need. As your body changes over this 18 month plus period the support of massage is incredibly beneficial.
Pregnancy Massage
Soothing, nurturing, relaxing and tension busting.
All treatments have been designed to help the body and mind as your body changes and adapts to look after your growing baby.
Treatments include a range of beautiful pregnancy safe products chosen specifically for their beneficial ingredients to nourish and sooth during this period.
Massage is a wonderful treatment to experience during this time of change benefiting both you and your baby as your body relaxes and stress free hormones are released. The mind and body are aided in a variety of ways as tensions are released and muscles eased.
A detailed consultation takes place on the day of your session taking into account the constant changes in pregnancy.
Often times there are areas that need attention that are not necessarily pregnancy related however we can still take care of them with the body in a pregnancy safe and comfortable position. Sessions are generally performed in 3 positions depending on needs and comfort levels - side lying, sat upright on the couch with bent knees and sat forward for detailed lower back work.
Your comfort is an absolute priority, there are cushions galore and the massage couch was specially chosen with pregnancy massage in mind.
A consultation then occurs at each session to asses changes to your massage if needs have changed.

Postnatal Massage
For detailed postnatal bodywork, mummy mots's and c section scar work please get in contact and I will pass on the information for wonderful practitioners I have been recommending for over a decade to support my clients.
Sessions can often begin in positions used in pregnancy massage as we assess how the body is healing. A detailed consultation determines where we start depending on your birth and postnatal recovery and how you are choosing to look after your newborn. This can be so varied, you may feel comfortable returning to lying on the tummy very soon or it may take some time for us to get there. This is all done very slowly and as always comfort is at the core of all the decisions we make. You may be ready for a full body massage soon after or we can choose a short foot massage to begin, there are many options.
Massage is amazing for supporting the upper body as it moves to carrying, bathing, feeding and often sleeping in some awkward positions. Feet can also feel very sore and need attention in this period. You may simply need some calm beautiful nurturing touch and a moment for yourself.
