You are allowed to move through pregnancy and postpartum life with ease…
Welcome to TOKPA™!
Tokpa comes from the Tibetan word meaning self-realization, understanding and experience. One of the main concepts in Tibetan Buddhism is to realize the nature of the mind.
The mind plays a key part in how we perceive everything from stress, pain or discomfort especially leading up to and during labor & birth.
When we're stressed, our breathing patterns shift, either speeding up or pausing, which impacts our muscles, tendons, and joints. On top of that, work can also take a toll on us during pregnancy.
Stress can even make it harder to become pregnant and delay labor.
I encourage clients to be aware of their breath and develop a relationship with their changing bodies as they go through pregnancy, labor, birth, and beyond.
Let’s take a deep and slow breath in through the nose…on the count of 6 or 7
Breathe out through the nose….on the count of 6 or 7
Feel a difference? Regardless of the answer, you could use a massage!
Now that we’ve connected with our breath, let’s talk about the physical…
Massage Therapy has a multitude of benefits during pregnancy and postpartum.
Whenever we perceive something as stressful, we tense up…
Studies show how massage can decrease cortisol (stress hormone), relax muscles, improve sleep, improve posture and more.
At TOKPA™, we are a team before, during, and after pregnancy.
TOKPA™ is a perfect blend of mental and physical. I guide you while you’re on the table so you can apply everything you experience to your pregnancy -- labor -- birth -- postpartum -- beyond.
Not pregnant yet? I empathize with how difficult trying to conceive can be. You’re welcome to experience TOKPA™ massage at any stage of your journey.
