Traditional Postpartum Massage

Rest on the table as we work deeply into overtaxed muscles. Relaxation and deep tissue massage combine to relieve tensions created by birth, early parenting, and postpartum changes. Special attention is given to shoulders, chest, belly, cesarean scar recovery, hip tension, and grounding. Appropriate birth through 2 years.

Ayurvedic Postpartum Massage

Gentle rhythmic movements soothe the nervous system in this ancient Indian therapy that rejuvenates and grounds the body and mind by drenching hard working tissues in nourishing warm oil. Appropriate for birthing parents immediately following a vaginal birth or 7-10 days following a cesarean birth through the first year postpartum.  

We apologize this session is currently unavailable.

Baby snuggles nearby. Available as single sessions or multiple sessions after vaginal or cesarean birth. Availability is limited. Please call or email to schedule.
