Starting in my third trimester of pregnancy I started to hurt: All over. That’s what carrying a small human will do to you. On my birthday in May I treated myself to a prenatal massage with Fiona at Fertile Ground. Fiona is also a qualified doula and naturopath and she certainly knows her stuff. I floated out the door on the way to my birthday dinner with significantly less pain and stress. I was also psyched to be able to claim a refund from my private health insurance for naturopath services. Over the next seven weeks I saw Fiona a further four times, including twice in the week leading up to my scheduled medical induction. Fiona used acupressure methods to assist me in going into labour naturally and lo and behold the day after my last massage I gave birth with no need for medical intervention. I’ve since heard from others on my mum’s facebook group page that others have successfully managed to induce labour after visiting practitioners at Fertile Ground. It certainly worked for me and I couldn’t be more pleased.
