Pregnancy Wellness
Giving birth is a very special time in a woman’s life so it requires special regimens and rituals to prepare the body and for this wonderful moment. During pregnancy, the lymphatic and circulatory systems naturally become sluggish.
Pre Natal massage
Regular massage is an ideal way not only to counter sluggishness, fatigue and tiredness and to promote good health for the mother and baby but helps in a smooth delivery. Special care is given to positioning the body during massage to avoid any discomfort and ensure an uninterrupted flow of energy.
Post Natal massage
This massage helps to rebuild the immune system, helps to tone up the muscle so that you can return easily and quickly to normal shape & strength. It helps to relax the body and mind so that you can focus on your precious one.
Shirodhara
A wonderful, deeply relaxing treatment perfect either during or after pregnancy. A total feeling of wellness, mental clarity and comprehension is experienced in this process. A continuous, rhythmic flow of medicated oil is poured at a specific temperature from a specific height onto the third eye area, inducing an experience of deep relaxation, leaving one in a state of meditation.
The warm oil helps to calm the aggravated vata in the nervous system, thus restoring the nervous function and remove feelings of helplessness, hopelessness or that cloudy, dull feeling we sometimes get. Shirodhara creates profound relaxation of the mind and body. The process lasts for 30 – 35 minutes. It is followed by an Ayurvedic head massage.
Wellness consultation
According to Ayurveda, women play an important role in the health & wellbeing of society. This is because women are responsible for bringing new life into the world. For the health of the baby to be balanced at the time of birth, it is essential that the health of the mother is also balanced at the physical, mental & emotional levels. An Ayurvedic consultation with Dr Ajit (the most experienced Ayurvedic Doctor in Australasia) is an ideal way to know more about achieving this balanced state of health.
Dr. Ajit’s wellness consultations can give you the answers to various questions that can impact your pregnancy such as:
- Why do I need to look after myself & have a balanced body in order to conceive?
- Why do I need to make changes in my life during pregnancy?
- How can I get back into shape following the birth of my child?
- How can I avoid post-natal depression?
One-on -one wellness consultations are offered at Planet Ayurveda. Ask reception to make a booking for you.
