Postpartum Bodywork Sessions are designed to be flexible and supportive, with a 3-hour minimum booking per day. This allows us to tailor each day’s care based on your specific needs, incorporating a combination of the following services, such as Abhyanga Massage, Marma Point Therapy, Postpartum Belly Binding, and more.
This approach ensures that every visit is a complete, nourishing experience, offering the time and space for true relaxation, restoration, and transformation.
How It Works:
Choose from a range of Ayurvedic bodywork services, and we’ll curate a custom session based on what feels right for you that day. You can experience one primary treatment or a combination of several smaller therapies to create a unique, restorative experience.
​Our 3-hour minimum allows you to receive holistic care without rushing, fostering deep healing and true renewal.
