Sheehan Ednie-Rosen: midwifery & zero balance

Zero Balancing

Zero Balancing uses gentle touch to stimulate energy and healing. It is very effective in alleviating specific and general physical discomfort, relieving stress, and helping you become more centered and grounded in your life and work.  ZB works with the energy and structure of the body, specifically it concentrates on the bones and joints. Finger tip pressure especially along the pelvis, ribs, feet and shoulders, is used to release held tension and help realign the body.  Zero Balancing can be deeply relaxing, or very energizing (sometimes both!) depending on what you are looking for.   Sessions will typically last 25-45 minutes. Clients are fully clothed during sessions which can be done lying on a massage table or sitting in a chair.  I have found ZB particularly helpful with pelvic and hip pain in mid to late pregnancy, and in overall postpartum recovery. I have also worked with people recovering from trauma and injury. Zero Balancing can be used to complement chiropractic work and massage.

Perinatal Massage

Massage during pregnancy is not a luxury!  Prenatal, labor and postpartum massage has been used for centuries, across all cultures, to help ease changes in the body, mind and spirit. I am a certified Nurturing the Mother Pre and Perinatal Massage Therapist and offer massage in all trimesters of pregnancy, during labor and after the birth. Massage has been shown to alleviate many discomforts of pregnancy, contribute to an easier labor, and help with the physical and emotional changes a new mother goes through after birth. Prenatal massages typically last 70-90 minutes depending on trimester or individual needs.

Wellness and Lifecycle Massage

Massage for daily life, to support well-being, and help you ease through transitions of any kind.  Massage Therapy is one of the most effective ways to help manage stress and provide relief from physical discomfort; it is also extremely safe and can speed healing.   I offer deep massage, light touch massage, myofascial therapy, and reflexology massage.  Most sessions will combine techniques to meet your body’s needs.  70-90 minute sessions.
