Pregnancy is one of the most special times in a woman's life. The pregnant mother's body is blooming as it grows and nourishes a new life. With all of the changes happening in a woman's body, it is important to consider what you are doing to facilitate a healthy pregnancy and birth. Lotus in Bloom offers integrated services to families during the childbearing year to support a healthy and happy mother and baby.
Most of our clients have found us to be the only service in Jacksonville that offers such a comprehensive set of services. We currently offer prenatal yoga classes, therapeutic pregnancy and postpartum massage, as well as a completely integrated doula/labor support package that offers a little of all of our services. We are dedicated to making your pregnancy as comfortable as possible from conception all the way to the birth of your child. We even provide specialized postpartum support with therapeutic massage for easing the body back into its natural alignment.
We also are proud to be the only Licensed and Certified Prenatal Massage Specialist in all of Jacksonville. This means that we specialize in the exact massage techniques needed by expectant mothers. A good prenatal massage can ease many of the discomforts that are often the side effects of pregnancy. The secret is, a skilled Pregnancy Massage Therapist can go right to the root of the pain and discomfort, and relieve it. With regularly scheduled massage treatments, most of the pain and discomfort can be eliminated completely.
Rather than getting a pregnancy massage from someone who is a jack of all trades, who only sees a pregnant mother every month or two, experience a massage from an expert who is skilled in the massage YOU need, a massage designed especially for the mother-to-be.
Juliet Kelso had this to say about her prenatal massage visits – “…I had been finding it increasingly hard to get much sleep, for numerous pregnancy related reasons, two of which were very painful hips and lower back ache. Sita gave me a therapeutic massage and worked on the trigger points and after the first visit I felt relief from the pain. I continued to visit Sita for the duration of my pregnancy and the hip pain totally vanished. Towards the end of my pregnancy I was feeling so good that there were very few trigger points causing any pain…”
Our doula/labor support packages provide a comprehensive array of services for the expectant mother who wants to experience a comfortable, fit pregnancy as well as a positive birth experience. Packages include prenatal yoga to provide increased flexibility, focus and concentration, and decrease swelling, anxiety and stress. Therapeutic Pregnancy Massage is a must to ease the pains and discomfort of the stress on the expectant mother’s body. All doula/labor support packages provide you with a local Jacksonville doula who connects with you through the massage and yoga classes is able to provide the gentle support that the whole family needs, when you most need it…during labor and at the birth of your baby. We’ve found that all of our individual services provide great benefit to the expectant mother, but when you combine all three it provides a level of support that is unequaled in a Jacksonville Doula Service. We have designed some packages with these goals in mind. Please click to read more about the packages here.
Jennifer Knight said- “…As our labor support I found Sita’s help to be invaluable. I was able to labor using many of the positions I had learned in prenatal yoga. At the hospital, she was able to help us calmly assess situations as they arose and she helped to keep us on track to have the birth we wanted. She worked so well with my husband and was a true support to him. I can’t imagine having future births that didn’t include Sita by my side! She was a true blessing!”
