Our Hot Tub
I now have a Canadian Spa hot tub cited on the Verandah. It is available for hire on site for a party of 6-7. I also have a colleague who will offer hot tub REBIRTHING in the New Year. The tub is available as a birthing pool and can be kept on all the time so there isn't a last minute rush to heat it up for the baby!!
I am training in Shiatsu for Maternity Care under Suzanne Yates of the Well Mother Centre, Bristol. My Practice is leaning towards shiatsu in fertility. As well as helping couples to conceive using traditional acupressure techniques, TCM and zen shiatsu I am employing the hot tub as a device to assist in pain relief peri-natally and of course for use a a birthing pool.
Shiatsu can be usefully employed at any point in the childbearing year to promote a healthier pregnancy, a more natural birth and a smooth transition to suckling, weaning and post-natal care.
The hot tub is sterilised by ACTIVE OXYGEN so no nasty chlorine!
