I am a Registered Midwife with a passion for the emotional and mental wellness of women in the antenatal, birth and postpartum period. Midwife Balance provides antenatal and postpartum clinical hypnotherapy, pregnancy massage and placenta encapsulation on the Gold Coast, Queensland, helping women prepare for and achieve emotional wellness at this exciting yet often challenging time.
The postpartum hormone drop is considered the single largest sudden hormone change to occur at any point in a woman’s life. To make this drop less dramatic, consuming minor doses of those hormones such as those in the encapsulated placenta has been noted to help women have a smoother transition post-birth.
Hypnotherapy is sadly often misunderstood. Many people are only familiar with stage hypnosis and not the wonderful outcomes that can be achieved when it is used therapeutically.
Hypnotherapy is such an exciting resource that is rapidly gaining traction as the science and clinical trials continues to back it up with hard evidence.
Massage during pregnancy is a great way to take time out for yourself. Women who are massaged during pregnancy report fewer depression and anxiety symptoms, better sleep, less back pain, and they have lower stress hormones.
