Pregnancy Massage

Ali is well rounded expert in all things pregnancy and birth. Ali is dedicated to supporting and holding space for women as they transition from maiden to motherhood. She utilises gentle yet effective techniques to tailor massage therapy to your specific pregnancy needs, while alleviating common pregnancy discomforts such as lower back pain, muscle tension, and swelling in the feet and ankles. Her therapies go beyond physical relief, as pregnancy massage promotes relaxation, reduces stress levels, and improves sleep quality.

​

From a young age, Ali was captivated by the miracle of life’s beautiful cycle. She believed pregnancy, labour, and postpartum are profoundly unique to the individual, and the care provided should reflect that. Over the years, Ali has completed extensive studies in a range of disciplines to emotionally, physically, and spiritually support women and their families to have a safe and positive birth experience.  

 

Ali is our resident doula, and the proud owner of Tidal Birth, a platform to connect pregnant women to holistically integrated pregnancy, labour, and postpartum support. She is passionate about education and believes that empowerment during pregnancy thrives when seeded on a foundation of choice.
