Elementa Pregnancy Clinic
Congratulations on your pregnancy and well done on making a conscious decision to do the best you can for yourself and your growing baby. Pregnancy is such a wonderful natural state - a time for joy, anticipation and planning.

 We partner pregnant women in making informed choices and together we choose treatments and products that work, in synergy, to achieve a healthy and well mother and baby.

What do we offer?
Our team of health specialists from naturopaths & herbalists, nutritionists, kinesiologists and NLP practitioners and massage / cranial sacral therapists and pregnancy yoga teachers work together to support you in an amazing pregnancy and birth experience.
We offer natural ways to encourage a healthy pregnancy and birth, as well as a range of solutions for complications including morning sickness, heartburn, back pain,  sciatica, varicose veins, pregnancy and birth emotional issues, postnatal depression and overdue pregnancy.

Pregnancy and post pregnancy health consultations:
Run by fully qualified naturopaths & herbalists, nutritionists, kinesiologists and NLP/lifecoaching practitioners, consultations are tailored  to your individual needs. Sessions may include;

1. Looking at lifestyle changes: Identifying and coping with stress; identifying and managing emotional needs; understanding and avoiding exposure to toxins; avoiding radiation damage and addressing weight issues and exercise.

2. Diet and nutrition needs: Women who eat a balanced, nutritious diet and take the correct supplements during pregnancy may prevent complications associated with poor nutrition, achieve a easy and natural birth process and improve the long-term health and wellbeing of the baby as well as makes it easier to get your body back to normal after the birth and with breastfeeding.

3. Immune function and infections. Increased hormones in pregnancy result in changes to your immune system, potentially making you more susceptible to allergies and intolerances. These changes may require natural ways to reduce the risk of infections and manage any infections that occur.

Our pregnancy classes are for women in their second trimester onwards. .

Pregnancy massage
Nurture yourself and your baby with this soothing massage performed on a body pillow or having you lying on your side for comfort. Massage during pregnancy can teach the mother to relax-key to an easy labour and delivery; reduction in anxiety and stress hormones during pregnancy (norepinephrine) leading to fewer obstetric and post-natal complications including lower prematurity rates; decrease symptoms of carpal tunnel and other conditions associated with pregnancy; enhances the gestation process by increasing blood circulation and reducing oedema (swelling); assists relieving discomfort in muscles supporting the weight bearing joints-eg hips, pelvis and back. We recommend blending reflexology and massage into one session for pregnancy.  Reflexology is restorative and balancing for expectant mums and deeply relaxing.  It is particularly useful when oedema in the ankles is present.
