I began Merakai Therapies as a result of my long-time interest in using massage to help heal the body, as well as my own difficult journey to parenthood.... In time, Merakai Massage was established to offer both traditional remedial massage and specialist pregnancy massage therapies. Because of my experience, I have a special place in my heart for massage for pregnancy. To apply massage that also nurtures women, and their partners, going through their own journey to parenthood is a blessing. I understand the anxiety that pregnancy can bring, the aches and pains, as well as the joy as I have experienced those feelings and more. My journey enables me to better understand and help other women on their own journey to parenthood and provide massage treatments that not only offer specialist techniques but are applied with empathy and care. If you would like more information, I am happy to chat with you anytime about the benefits of massage and how we can help you throughout your pregnancy.
