massage
Sometimes your body simply needs to be looked after. Whether you are trying to conceive, moving through pregnancy, recovering from birth or just carrying the physical weight of motherhood in your shoulders and neck, massage is one of the most direct ways to support your body back to ease.
At Maia Mothers we offer massage ranging from gentle relaxation through to targeted remedial treatment, with sessions available from 60 to 90 minutes. All of our massage therapists are trained in pregnancy massage, so you are in safe, experienced hands at every stage.
Remedial massage goes beyond surface-level relaxation. It works to relieve muscular tension, improve joint mobility, support circulation and address postural patterns that build up over time, particularly the kind that come with feeding, carrying and the general demands of keeping a family running.
While we see a lot of pregnant women and new mothers, our massage services are open to everyone. Partners, dads and non-mothers are very welcome.
Ariel Dawson is a registered remedial massage therapist, meaning her services are eligible for private health rebates. We recommend checking your level of cover with your provider prior to your appointment.
Massage packs are available for women wanting consistent, ongoing support: choose from a 5 or 10 session pack at a reduced rate.

Remedial massage is more targeted, addressing specific muscular issues, postural patterns or areas of pain or restriction. Your therapist will discuss which approach suits you best at the start of your session.
