Post Dates Pregnancy Massage
£125.00
So you’ve reached your ‘due date” and there is no sign of baby yet. That’s because the ‘due date’ is based on out of date science and only about 5 % of babies arrive on that date. These days, it’s better to focus on a due period from 37- 42 weeks.
Once you reach 40 weeks you may start to feel pressure from your NHS team to book in for induction and if this is something you might wish to avoid then the period between 40-42 weeks is a great opportunity to try out some natural methods of preparing your body for labour starting with a full body acupressure massage.
Before we meet I will send you a health questionnaire to determine what you are looking for from the massage and to ensure it is safe to massage you in pregnancy.
At the appointment, I will show you to the massage room and leave you in privacy to undress and get comfortable on the specially heated mattress, whilst you breathe in some relaxing aromatherapy.
Once I have assisted with your comfort, with extra cushions to support your bump, we will get started with a soothing foot cleansing ritual before I commence a deeply relaxing full body, face and scalp massage.
During this massage I will stimulate some key acupressure points on your hands, legs and lower back which can stimulate the production of hormones to encourage natural labour.
During the massage, there will be a soundtrack of a relaxing hypnobirthing track to promote calm and confidence about baby’s birth.
At the end of the massage I will take a recording of baby’s heartbeat
Added extra! – a bundle of resources will be discussed with you and sent to you after the session including relaxation audios and information around natural techniques to prepare your body for labour.

Amrita Rai –
We attended the birth preparation classes with Linda and I also had an acupressure massage with her. The classes were very informative and it was great to be able to ask questions to someone who has delivered 1000s of babies and knows first hand what happens in all scenarios. We also attended the NCT classes and they just didn’t compare to the depth we covered with Linda. Linda created a friendly and comfortable environment for us and the snacks were also great! We walked away confident about the birth of our first baby and when things didn’t quite go to plan she was still on hand to advise us! I would definitely recommend this course to first time parents!
Linda’s acupressure massage was very relaxing and it was a nice touch to listen to baby’s heart beat during this time.
