Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage in Perth

Nurturing, unhurried bodywork to support you and your baby.

 

Your body is doing something incredible.

This is your space to soften, be held, and receive.

​Pregnancy asks so much of your body — physically, emotionally, and mentally.​

 

You might be feeling:

• tight through your back, hips or shoulders

• heavy, tired, or uncomfortable

• overwhelmed or needing space to slow down

 

​Or you may simply be craving a moment to reconnect with yourself and your baby.

 

​My pregnancy massage sessions are designed to meet you exactly where you are.​

 

What Makes This Different

 

This isn’t just a massage. As a doula, I hold a deeper understanding of pregnancy, birth, and the nervous system.

Every session is shaped around you — your body, your baby, and what you need in that moment.​

 

Together, we create space for:

• relief from physical tension

• nervous system regulation

• emotional support and grounding

• connection with your baby

 

You are not just another appointment here. You are held.

Based in Ocean Reef, I bring the Nurture Session to homes across:

  • Joondalup,

  • Hillarys,

  • Currambine,

  • Mindarie,

  • Burns Beach,

  • Iluka,

  • Kinross and the surrounding suburbs, with wider Perth metro by arrangement.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Is massage safe during pregnancy?

Yes, for most pregnancies pregnancy massage is not only safe but deeply beneficial. Every session begins with a conversation about your health and your pregnancy, and as a doula I understand when extra care is needed and when to suggest checking in with your midwife or doctor first. Your safety and your baby's always come before anything else.

Can massage help with back pain, hip pain or sciatica?

These are the three most common reasons women book with me. As your baby grows, your posture shifts and your lower back, hips and glutes carry the change. Slow, targeted work in these areas can bring real relief, and side-lying positioning means we can reach them properly without any strain on you.

What about swelling in my legs and feet?

Gentle massage supports circulation and lymphatic flow, which can ease that heavy, puffy feeling in your legs, ankles and feet. If swelling ever comes on suddenly or feels severe, I'll encourage you to see your care provider first, as that's something worth checking.

Will massage bring on labour?

 

This one comes up a lot, and the honest answer is no: massage doesn't start labour before your body and baby are ready. What it does beautifully is calm your nervous system and support the hormones that help labour unfold when the time comes. In your final weeks we can also focus on softening and preparing the body for birth.

What do I wear? Will I be covered?

 

Whatever feels comfortable. You'll undress to your level of comfort in private, and you're professionally draped with towels the whole time, with only the area being massaged uncovered. Warmth, dignity and comfort are part of the care.

What if I get emotional during the session?

 

Then you're in exactly the right place. Pregnancy stirs up so much, and it's common for feelings to rise when the body finally softens. There's no need to hold anything in or apologise. This is your space, and you are held, tears and all.

"I had a 90-minute pregnancy massage with Abbi yesterday and couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Abbi was so friendly and she has such a calming presence, which is exactly what I needed. Being pregnant whilst also chasing after a toddler means my nervous system is often running on overdrive.

One of the best parts was that she came to my home. Not having to get in the car and drive back from a clinic afterwards was such a luxury. Instead, I could simply stay relaxed and enjoy being in the comfort of my own surroundings.

The massage itself was absolutely lovely. I felt lighter, calmer and so much more comfortable afterwards. In fact, I was actively trying to stay awake because I didn’t want to miss a single minute of it!

If you’re pregnant and looking to do something truly lovely for yourself, I would highly recommend booking with Abbi. It was
exactly what I needed, I’m already booking in my next session."
