Tap into Calm, for pregnancy, labour & birth
Reduce Stress for a calmer pregnancy
Pregnancy, Labour and Birth is a time of great excitement but can also be a time of great worry for many. This can be due to a previous traumatic birth, previous miscarriage, or maybe you've had a long journey to get to here and every twinge or ache causes concern. Or maybe you have an upcoming scan which strikes some fear into your soul.
This is where EFT Tapping can come in very useful. It helps to ease your worry and your stress.
Combining your Tapping session with a Pregnancy Reflexology treatment or a KMRT Somatic breath and Movement session for a winning combination.

What is Emotional Freedom Techniques ?

Emotional Freedom Techniques or tapping, is an effective, calming and gentle technique which is also known as Emotional Acupuncture (i.e. Acupuncture without the needles). It is a gentle reset for your mind & body much like a massage for your nervous system !
Immersing yourself in this experience, will lower your heart rate, slow down your breath and will quiet your mind, helping to gently remove the negative emotional charge attached to physical and emotional issues. It has been adopted by the US military for the treatment of PTSD and is used by the NHS in the UK.
When someone attends for EFT, they are looking to reduce stress, anxiety, an addiction, limiting beliefs, a trauma or anything that may be causing them to feel distressed. It may also help with physical symptoms such as pain.
Through the process of tapping, we are re-wiring the brain to have new beliefs, emotional patterns, physical habits and perceptions.
It helps us to discover what is living underneath our pain, and then helps in releasing it.

How Does a Session of EFT Tapping Work ?
During this amazing treatment, you are guided every step of the way.
There are a number of techniques which I will use during a session which are tailored to you to meet you where you are at.
We start the session with some calming somatic breathwork or visualisation to welcome you into the room. We then have a chat to see what is going on with you at this moment in time and we determine the intensity of any emotion which needs to be discharged. From there, we may drop in to our breath or do a visualisation before I guide you through the tapping sequence by tapping on acupressure points around the body, mainly the head, face, chest area, under the arms and fingers. While we tap, we also pay mindful attention to the negative thoughts and feelings.
After each round of tapping we check the intensity of the emotion being worked on and you get to see how effectively tapping will reduce this for you.
You may find yourself yawning as energy starts shifting as it is being released.
When the session is over, you feel calm !
