Moon-Time Massage
Menstrual, Energetically known as The Winter Phase, this is the time women want to curl up in their comfies on the couch with a cuppa and just hibernate.
As someone who has always suffered quite uncomfortable painful periods; experiencing severe lower back pain, mood swings, bloating and cramping a few days before my period, I sought out ways to be more comfortable.
I have found Menstrual Massages to really help mitigate these symptoms, alongside this I would also advise a good nutritious diet (avoiding greasy foods & alcohol) plenty of water, herbal drinks and light exercise.
This Full Body Massage is very gentle and deeply relaxing, focusing on the Abdomen, Back, Hips and Sacrum. This helps to relax the muscles around your Digestive and Pelvic organs and increase circulation, lymph and nerve flow in the abdomen which can help relieve pain and inflammation enabling the uterus to cleanse herself of old blood and toxins.
Prices start at £65
What to expect
I like to use a blend of soothing oils depending on your needs, one of my favorites is Rose Geranium massage oil as not only does it have a beautiful scent but is also an anti-inflammatory offering pain relief, soothing anxiety and promoting relaxation. During the massage I like to offer a herbal heat pack to soothe the abdomen or lower back areas whilst I massage elsewhere which helps reduce cramps, a lot of my clients love this as it is so comforting.
When Should you have a Menstrual Massage?
I would suggest looking at your cycle and booking 2 - 5 days before your period, I understand that not everyone has a regular cycle, in that case once you have filled out a consultation form we can discuss more and book you in an appropriate time.
