Stephanie is a Remedial Massage Therapist and Birth/Postpartum Doula with more than 20 years of experience supporting women through the transformative journey of pregnancy, birth and the early weeks and months after birth.

​

Stephanie's practice draws from a range of modalities including Remedial and Therapeutic Massage, Reiki, Acupressure for labour and birth, Body Balancing and childbirth physiology to meet each client where they are and offer personalised treatments.

​

By combining her extensive background in birth support work with evidence-based bodywork, Stephanie supports clients to create ease and balance in their bodies and emotions, reduce discomfort, optimise functional movement patterns, deepen their awareness and connection with themselves and their babies, and prepare their bodies effectively for birth.

​

Stephanie values women's innate wisdom and authority, and promotes the themes of collaboration, consent and open communication in both her birth work and her bodywork offerings.

​

Stephanie provides prenatal and postnatal massage treatments, alongside additional modalities including BRM® body balancing and Optimal Maternal Positioning, and continues to develop her professional and clinical skills in order to offer personalised and holistic support. She is currently training in the G. Lorri Fetal Positioning method to further deepen the work she is able to offer.

Stephanie is available at Mana on Thursday afternoons and evenings by appointment.
