Reflexology and Pregnancy
Friday, January 9, 2009 at 2:24PM 
When I first started out in complementary therapy I used to be a reflexologist and I ended up specialising in pregnancy/conception reflexology. It is still something that the Wellbeing Clinic has a good name for. Ever since I have owned the clinic we have had three reflexologists all who have had an interest in this field and done some fantastic work with pregnancy.
Reflexology Nottingham have a lot of specialist experience in pregnancy/conception reflexology.
So how can reflexology Nottingham can help during pregnancy?
Reflexology is beneficial for the mother throughout pregnancy because it not only maintains general well being and aids relaxation, it also helps relieve many pregnancy issues such as:
hormonal imbalances
morning sickness
back ache
constipation
breath shortness
heartburn
pain in symphysis pubis
blood pressure problems
breech babies
back to back babies
fear
anxiety
stress
Reflexology can help the mother and baby prepare (emotionally and physically) for childbirth, creating a calm mind, a calm baby and a body which is ready for the special process of childbirth.
If a baby is overdue reflexology can be used to encourage labour.In our experience we find this to be more effective in women who have had regular reflexology sessions throughout their pregnancy.
Nearer the time of childbirth reflexology nottingham can offer birth partners the chance to come in and learn some reflexology techniques that can be useful to use during the labour such as points which will help keep the labour progressing or good grounding techniques to help promote calmness in the mother-to-be and baby.
We often get asked if it is safe to have reflexology in the first trimester of pregnancy?
Reflexology is safe and very effective any stage of pregnancy and will only work in harmony with your body. If for some unfortunate reason you miscarry this is a decision taken by nature and NOT by reflexology.
It is always best to listen to your intuition and we strongly feel if you are worried about the treatment then wait till after 12 weeks-you still have 28 weeks to go!.
Working with women throughout their pregnancy is always a great privilege.
