Our Horsham pregnancy massage is run by Catherine Leavett. She specialises in pregnancy, prenatal and postnatal massages.
Catherine has always had a keen interest in massage. After having two children, and experiencing first-hand the musculoskeletal impact it had on her own body, she decided to specialise in Pregnancy and Post Natal massage.
She is passionate about supporting women throughout this stage of their lives and has undertaken various training to ensure they receive a high level of care.

On booking your initial appointment, you will receive a booking confirmation email with links to complete your patient intake forms before your appointment.
Before the session you will be asked to complete a Pre-screening form. This allows us to obtain your medical details and screen you before you have your appointment. During your session we will have a short consultation to better understand why you have chosen to have a massage.
The massage will then take place in the side lying position and you will be supported by pillows so that you and your bump feel comfortable.
We will position you on a comfy massage table facing down into a face cradle. If this is not comfortable for you due to breastfeeding or c-section scar, we can perform the massage in the side lying position. Once we have worked over your back we will turn you over and work on your front including your abdomen (if this is something you are comfortable with).

During pregnancy, your body changes enormously. As it changes shape and your posture shifts, the muscles and soft tissues become overworked and stretched which leads to many different aches and pains throughout your body.
Pregnancy Massage can help to manage and support your changing body as well as improve your posture, balance your hormones, revitalize your mind, facilitate a feeling of well-being and prepare your mind, body and baby for birth and motherhood.
According to the American Pregnancy Association, “Research shows prenatal massage therapy can help reduce anxiety, decrease symptoms of depression, relieve muscle aches and joint pains, and improve labour outcomes and newborn health.
”You can receive a Pregnancy massage from 12 weeks up until you go into labour.
Clinical postnatal massage is a tailored treatment designed to support your body after pregnancy and birth. The first session includes a postural assessment, gentle checks for abdominal separation (diastasis recti) and scar healing (C-section), breathwork and movement assessment, ensuring care is safe and appropriate for your stage of recovery.
Alongside hands-on massage to ease common postnatal aches and pains, sessions also include guidance to support pelvic floor and deep core strengthening, improve breathing patterns, and restore functional movement. This holistic, clinical approach supports active recovery, helping you reconnect with your body, build strength, and feel more confident and comfortable in everyday life after birth.
