NOW OFFERING SESSIONS AT TWO LOCATIONS IN OSLO
"There is a big difference between the ability to do it all & the need to do it all by yourself...Support cover the need part & it does not, in any way, question your skills or your will to mother your own child...
Take The Help... It is a step towards empowerment, it is healing for the body & soul plus it is an incredible investment on your own physical & mental wellbeing today & for the future..."
Kate Brinch Sand

Why Postpartum Bodywork?
In the world of massage it is said that "the issues are in the tissues". Our tissues undergo tremendous adaptations throughout our lives. Our body preserves memories from a life before motherhood & the profound impact of pregnancy, birth & postpartum imprint themselves into our tissues; postpartum is an encounter with our shadow & the period of time from conception & through exogestation is a time of deep & complex evolution for the new mother who must undergo critical physiological changes to provide baby with the necessary environment to thrive. Mothers are not meant to do this without care & support, yet they do most of the time. The transition leaves a print on our body, our tissues, and bodywork helps the mother process her experiences.
"In our journey into & through motherhood we experience primarily three types of touch: needs touch from our newborn; needs touch from our partner & other children; exploratory touch from medical providers. Massage & bodywork provide a (new) mother with a space of calm & restoration, where her body encounters an opportunity to receive touch which only gives but does not take anything from her; except for whatever she wants to release & let go off."
