Mollys Guide - Spring 2018

passionate about pregnancy
Baby & Me Lincoln has recently opened the
doors to their new parent & baby relaxation
and wellness centre in Branston, Lincoln.
Hayley, who is the owner of Baby & Me Lincoln is
a Massage Therapist who specialises in treatments
for pregnant and postnatal clients and is passionate
about helping expectant and new mothers and their
partners to feel relaxed and well throughout their
pregnancy and parenthood journey.
Pregnancy massage, massage for labour and
birth, manual therapy for conditions such as pelvic
girdle pain, back pain and sciatica and kinesiology
taping are all treatments on offer for the pregnant
client followed by postnatal massage, deep tissue
massage, relaxation massage, Nurture Postnatal
and baby massage classes once baby has arrived.
The new centre is quiet, relaxing and welcoming
and creates the perfect environment for pregnant
ladies, their partners as well as new mums, dads
and babies to come along relax and unwind with
a treatment or class of their choice. Treatments
are held in the tranquil therapy room with heated
couch, aromatherapy and calming lighting whilst
groups such as baby massage are held in the group
room which is light, warm and cosy.
Being a parent can at times be really hard
and challenging so it’s really important to
look after yourself so you can look after
your family. Quite often as a parent our
own needs are not a priority and if they
are they are way down list of priorities of
things to do. I want parents to know how
important it is to put regular time aside for
themselves to look after their own health
and wellbeing and for them to acknowledge that it
is ok to do so (and not feel guilty for doing this!)
HEALTH & SPORT
Baby & Me
Massage therapy offers a perfect opportunity
to ease aches, pains, tension and anxiety that
can sometimes come with parenting, it also
offers a perfect opportunity for some ‘me time’
and has many benefits which are both physical
and emotional. I also want parents to feel
confident, empowered and supported in their
role and when they attend one of my classes
it is a great opportunity for them to
meet other mums, dads and babies
and build up a support network of
other like-minded individuals. Many
mums and dads who have attended
classes run by Baby & Me have told
me that they stay in regular contact
with the others from their class and
have found lifelong friends which is
amazing!
As well as making friends at baby massage
classes there are many benefits for both baby
and the parent learning the massage strokes,
some of the benefits for parents include
increased levels of relaxation, improved
confidence in handling and responding to
babys cues and bonding with baby.
For the baby receiving the massage the
benefits are huge and include relief from colic,
constipation, wind and tummy pain, relief from
teething pain and other common ailments,
improved relaxation and sleep durations and
it also stimulates all of the major systems in
babys body.
