Prenatal Ayurvedic treatment

A moment for you

A soft pause, for you and your baby

Pregnancy asks a lot of both body and mind. The prenatal Ayurvedic treatment gives you time just for yourself, to release tension, slow down and reconnect with your baby.

It is a full-body massage with warm sesame oil, originating from India. Gentle strokes, friction and stretches flow smoothly one into the next and invite deep relaxation, of body and mind alike.

A doula's support always complements medical care.

The origins of the treatment

What is Ayurveda?

Ayurveda is a traditional Indian medicine, practiced for more than 5,000 years. Its name comes from the Sanskrit ayur, life, and veda, knowledge: it literally means “the knowledge of life.”

It is based on harmony between body and mind. A holistic and preventive approach, it invites each person to adopt a way of life that suits them, to live long and in good health.
