PREGNANCY SESSIONS
Prenatal healing sessions offer more than just physical rebalancing, they help mothers to lighten the emotional load they are carrying into the birth room and familiarise themself with the powers inherant deep in the body.
What you carry into the birth - physically and emotionally can flavor your birth experience to a large or small degree and often, sadly, women have had (or heard too much about) previous difficult or traumatic birthing experiences. Unresolved emotional residue can cause holding and tension - both emotional/psychological and physically in the body. You definitely cant change the past but you can change the way it is felt in the body and that is what bodywork and Holistic Pelvic Care sessions before birth are great for.
In sessions with Chaitanya through pregnancy and before birth, we are always looking to facilitate gentle release, softness, spaciousness and balance. Read more about Pregnancy Sessions here.
POSTNATAL SESSIONS
After birthing, sessions focus on welcoming your pelvis and her organs and tissues back into balance - assisting the body to close down after the big opening (whether vaginal or c-section) and helping the ribs, organs (including bladder) ribs and pelvic muscles to release the effects of pregnancy and birth and come back into their innate functionality.
Closing the bones bodywork is essential after birth and was provided to women in all the old cultures. The Closing the Bones Ceremony (from South Ameria) is a powerful and sacred way to heal after birth and mark the transition into the next phase of your life.

HOW MANY SESSIONS AND WHEN?
In pregnancy book in for your 2nd trimester and we can explore and discuss your needs and what your body is holding and discern a good treatment strategy for you. This may be regular monthly support to have you feeling nourished and balanced, or just a session each trimester and one just before birthing.
Postpartum, there's no need to wait if you'd like an early session Chaitanya offers homevisits if your location is closeby as we can work gently to give you relief and release even in the week after birthing. Having a session in the early postpartum is great to bring your pelvic alignment back into functionality and out of its post-birthing holding pattern. Then a session around 3 months pp when the ligaments have regained their integrity is a good idea. I've found three sessions over three months is a very effective rhythm for my clients.
Mums with older children are also welcome to book in for treatment anytime. Its great to have regular bodywork to keep you resourced, relaxed and balanced so seasonal sessions or at least a yearly check in are recommended.
Closing Ceremonies - there's no hard and fast rule about when to schedule this, as it is ceremonial my clients usually feel the urge arise then we make a time that work for all of us.
