How to replace lost blood and nutrients during postpartum

Hi, I’m Ashley. Mama of two, passionately supporting Mothers in their transition to motherhood, or motherhood again. Phlox Postpartum doula services, is founded on a desire to support women and families.

She runs private and group Hypnobirth classes in Mona Vale and offers preconception/fertility and postpartum massage. Natalie is passionate about helping women and their partners regulate their nervous systems in preparation for birth no matter what turn it may take. Natalie is also trained in OMP, acupressure and rebozo techniques. She also runs a pregnancy loss support group and has completed studies in Birth Trauma and offers one-on-one birth debriefs to couples needing additional support.

Life Ready Studio is an intimate, personal and supportive reformer pilates studio based in Caulfield North, Melbourne.

With only 7 reformers, the client experience feels like a personal session with constant instructor awareness, allowing for necessary adjustments throughout the class. Life Ready Studio was established by Teri, who wanted to create a space where clients could move in a group class but still be seen and adjusted where needed.

Teri thrives on helping and encouraging people to move confidently. She believes that creating a space that challenges clients whilst they move through all stages of life ( Pilates beginner, post injury, antenatal and postnatal as well as advanced Pilates enthusiasts) while feeling fully supported mentally and physically is the key to ultimate wellbeing.

Teri’s main passion is helping mothers and mothers-to-be feel strong and confident in their bodies before and after pregnancy. Having two boys (and a third baby on the way), Teri understands the importance of movement pre- and post-natally to aid the body during pregnancy, for birth, and, most importantly, for recovery. The studio provides support for mums-to-be throughout every trimester, adjusting movement to accommodate the changes in the body. The studio also provides mums and bubs classes so clients can move while having their baby next to them in the pram, on the mat or in the carrier. Each class helps clients regain their strength and confidence, while still allowing them to spend time with their baby and other like-minded mums.
