Post-natal massage
Giving birth is an epic experience. The baby setting in at home afterwards is just the beginning. But when does the person who did all the hard work get to rest and recover? Often there is a very small amount of recovery time but a little can go a long way. Our post-natal massage therapy sessions could make a huge difference.

Information about post-natal massage

Help yourself recover when you are post natal
Alongside our maternity massage services, we also offer post-birth massage treatments. The biggest change your body will experience is the moment your baby is born, and no matter how they are born, your body moves from pregnant to not pregnant. It might not feel it at the time, but this is a relatively short amount of time for such a massive change to your body.
Our post-birth massage therapy services are designed to help you to recover quicker and give you some much needed recuperation.
You will feel comfortable, supported and cared for
We know that the first massage session after a baby is a big moment. It is likely the first bit of quality you-time that you will have had since the birth. We also know that as much as you need the break it is also a big thing to leave the baby in someone else's capable hands while you recuperate.
It is common for there to be a few tears at these sessions as the emotions come and go during this important time. We are skilled and experienced in dealing with this as well. You are in safe hands.
Post-natal massage reviews
We are very proud of our reviews and hope that the positive comments from our previous clients will encourage you to come and visit us.
Benefits of a post-natal massage
The biggest change your body will experience is the moment your baby is born, and no matter how they are born, your body moves from pregnant to not pregnant. It might not feel it at the time, but this is a relatively short amount of time for such a massive change to your body.
Birth recovery
A postnatal massage can help to tackle aches and pains related to giving birth and the body adjusting to not carrying a baby any longer.
Swelling
A reduction in swelling and reduced risk of mastitis as well as better natural regulation of hormones.
Recuperation
Massage can provide some much needed time to yourself, to gather your strength for the almost constant attention the baby needs.
Stress and depression
A postnatal massage can help with reducing stress, anxiety or depression and help you get better quality sleep.
You're in safe, gentle hands

Pregnancy Massage Specialist
I'm Fi, the founder of Origin Massage and resident specialist in pregnancy and postnatal massage. As an experienced antenatal educator, surrogate and mother of 2, I am passionate about helping people feel comfortable with their pregnancy, prepared and ready for birth and supporting new parents afterwards through massage.
I specialise in pregnancy massage because I am familiar and comfortable with pregnant bodies. I've learned so much through the years, through my own body and through working with many hundreds of families in Sheffield. I will provide a safe and nurturing place for you to relax, unwind and feel at ease.
My massage therapy services are completely focused on pregnant people and those who have just had a baby. Because I specialise in this area you can be sure of having an relaxing experience that helps you unwind and rest. My post-birth massage therapy services are designed to help you to recover quicker and give you some much needed recuperation.
You are the centre of attention
My whole purpose when I am at work is to ensure that you are comfortable, well looked after and thoroughly enjoy your experience. So much of the pregnancy process is (rightly) focused on the baby you are growing but your health and happiness is also important. I dedicate our time to ensuring that you get that all important time for you to be you. To relax. To unwind. To properly let go of everything.
Alongside my maternity massage services, I also offer post-birth massage treatments. The biggest change your body will experience is the moment your baby is born, and no matter how they are born, your body moves from pregnant to not pregnant. It might not feel it at the time, but this is a relatively short amount of time for such a massive change to your body.
