True Blue: Massages for Couples

 

Empowered Births, Parents and Families. Since 1999.

 

MASSAGE FOR COUPLES 

(for relaxation or preconception care)  For couples wanting to conceive or simply to increase mutual responsiveness, we suggest booking a Massage for Couples. The Massage for Couples lasts for about 90 minutes. During the treatment the couple is on massage tables. The treatment includes assessment, synchronized breathing, a synchronized combination of massage therapies and bodywork performed by two therapists, tonification of related meridians if conception is the goal, and final feedback including a list of supportive measures. In terms of fertility, there are a few natural methods for the enhancement of fertility that use so-called circadian rhythms or cosmic clocks, which represent the internal body time that rules cycles in the body such as the menstrual cycle. Since most women in developed countries are using artificial birth control, as well as other types of medications that disturb hormonal balance, very few are synchronized with their own fertility cycle.

Aside from the right timing, physical, emotional and mental communication plays a significant role in fulfilling your fertility potential. A variety of therapies and exercises may assist in developing a better sense of why and how we want to carry on the first conception and then the pregnancy. Some of the most useful measures to develop sensitivity to my own fertility cycle for me and my clients were:

  • Couples and individual massages (such as Shiatsu, Cranio-Sacral, Swedish, Aromatherapy etc.)
  • Any type of breath work and breathing therapies ( work of Stanislav Grof, Jim Leonard, Pranayama Yoga, various breathing therapies )
  • Meditation and visualization ( Shakti Gawain ) and Yoga (for couples) and Acupuncture and Herbs  (The Birth Cottage) 
  • We strongly believe that increasing the likelihood of conception requires women to be more actively involved with their own bodies.  We recommend becoming more educated about natural and herbal supplements for fertility, about appropriate types of exercises that promote the flow of body energy (Qi) such as Qi Gong or Tai Chi, and about pre-conception mind and body detox (internal physical, emotional and mental cleansing).


The cost of Couple Massage is 150.00 + GST ($157.50) for 1 hour treatment (two therapists).

Stone Therapy (mostly known as a hot stone therapy) is a type of treatment that utilizes both hot and cold stones for therapy and relaxation purposes. Both Eliana and Slaven are no only performing treatments but also teaching workshops in hot stone therapy since 2001 (see: Stone Waters Continuing Education). The cost of the 60min treatment is 85.00+ GST ($89.25) per person.
