Postpartum Offerings

Any woman who has given birth will no doubt agree that the postpartum period does not magically come to an end after the 'fourth trimester', or even 6/9/12 months after giving birth. From the moment a woman births her first child, she is ‘postpartum’ – her body, brain, relationships, needs, priorities and perspectives change, for life.

 

How a woman looks after herself, how her family centres her care in her early motherhood and beyond, and how much community support and recognition she receives affects her physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health in a profound way.

 

While having children brings its own unique challenges, experiencing pregnancy loss or release through miscarriage or abortion is another gateway into the postpartum that warrants just as much care and attention.

 

The postpartum time in fact represents a ‘golden opportunity’ to transform your hormonal health and vitality. When this opportunity for healing and repair is missed, it can lead to a number of common women's health issues – fatigue, burnout, mood disorders, menopausal symptoms, prolapse, pelvic pain, incontinence and problems with scar tissue formation and adhesions.

 

While the effects of inadequate care in the postpartum time are wide-ranging, a woman is able to access and unlock layers of nourishment, vitality, physical and emotional healing through applying the traditional wisdom of postpartum care practices from indigenous cultures across the world, at any stage in her postpartum journey.

 

The time immediately after birth is of course the most critical stage, and where the magic can really happen if rest, warmth, nourishment and healing is taken seriously.

As a mum, I care deeply about maternal wellness and the impact it has on families and communities, and am committed to making traditional postpartum care, ancestral nutritional wisdom, and female self-care rituals available to the modern woman in a way that works within the context of her family or unique situation.

 

As a medical herbalist and women’s health practitioner, I am also trained in recognising and treating many common female health conditions using herbs, nutrition and lifestyle medicine. I use a combination of Eastern and Western approaches to diagnosis and treatment, interpret blood work and other diagnostic tests such as stool tests and hair tissue mineral analysis.

For women who have experienced one or multiple postpartum ‘periods’ without a significant emphasis on rest, good nourishment and community support, all is not lost.
