Thank you for helping me relax! Rebecca , Aberdeen
That is why I have not been back in touch as I am waiting till I am well into the second trimester to make another appointment. I just wanted to say a big thank you as well because the treatment was so relaxing and balancing it really helped. Ellen , Aberdeen
I wouldn't be understating things to say that with Karen's help and support, my life was truly changed. Our end goal of a pregnancy and birth were achieved, but there were so many other benefits too. Over a year has passed since my last treatment and I still say to myself "What would Karen say?" during times of stress !! She is a positive and calm voice in my head. Julie, Aberdeen

I love my massages from Karen especially when I was pregnant, the treatment is always very relaxing and I never feel rushed.
I was exploring natural therapies that had been shown to help fertility issues when a friend suggested that I contacted Karen. I didn't know what to expect and was very nervous attending my first appointment but was willing to try anything that may help.
Karen was fantastic from the onset; she was professional, supportive, calming and explained everything before starting any treatment. She made me feel at ease.
I had decided to try the massages for 3 months to see how they helped and to monitor my cycle to see if there were any changes. I have to say I was blown away by how effective they were for me; not only did they help remove scar tissue from my womb but my cycles become more regular. Karen is such a good listener and is so supportive the regular sessions also helped with my mental wellbeing and kept me calm.
After 5 months of seeing Karen for a monthly massage I was over the moon to find out I was pregnant again. It was an emotional time and during the first trimester my emotions were all over the place from being excited to feeling very anxious. I saw Karen for a massage every 2 weeks initially during this time to keep my stress levels at a minimum and they really did help keep me calm. I am now entering the third trimester and have been seeing Karen for monthly pregnancy massages which I feel have made a huge difference by keeping me calm and relaxed and thus allowing me to enjoy my much longed for healthy pregnancy.
I highly recommend Karen to anyone suffering from fertility issues, it can be such an isolating journey which is an emotional rollercoaster and having Karen's support in addition to the benefits of the massage has made a real difference to me. Nicola, Aberdeen
The massage flowed throughout and did not feel disjointed at all, even when turning from my back to front, I was so relaxed I didn't really need to open my eyes.I think that the period I had after 2 fertility massages, was probably one of the heaviest I've ever had and I think this has a lot do to the massage. It really worked well to rid the body of the previous cycle and prepare for the next.
Having had my 3rd session on Day 11, this could not have been more perfect timing to trigger ovulation and I think that I have ovulated this cycle as I have experienced other symptoms too. Although I have been taking fertility medication, I am sure the massages have helped stimulate my ovaries too. It has been an emotional rollercoaster so far for myself and my husband, on our fertility journey and this massage has given me some extra time to treat myself. Many people have told me to be kind to myself throughout this fertility treatment and I can see why, it sends you crazy! But it is so nice to come to a massage, feel safe, unjudged and just relax in your company. Thank you very much Karen🙂 xx Hannah , Aberdeen
Karen very carefully explained the procedure - its not like any massage I've ever had before. I was discretely covered at all times and Karen completely put me at my ease throughout the whole therapy. The massage was quite deep in some areas but never painful. Karen could feel some areas were more in need of work than others and so concentrated on them. Karen's rhythmic movements together with the lovely warm room and background music meant I was totally chilled. I particularly loved the gentle binding up at the end and felt very content. My digestion certainly improved after the two treatments. I would highly recommend Karen as she's a wonderful therapist, very intuitive and completely puts you at your ease. Heather, Aberdeen
As a case study I enjoyed a number of regular massages from Karen, focusing primarily on abdomen and lower back. I felt like this encouraged blood flow and a sense of connection to that area. She also used Robozo scarves to encourage me to relax and feel secure and settled throughout the process. I really enjoyed the massages and the atmosphere that Karen creates, I would always feel very emotional afterwards and certainly that the techniques that she used were "doing something" to improve my fertility. Her use of homemade essential oils is a big plus point as these are wholly natural and organic and smell lovely! Around the conclusion of the case study I also undertook a self-funded IUI cycle, I continued to visit Karen throughout this and although it did not go entirely to plan and I was over-stimulated, Karen kept me grounded and calm through use of massage, reflexology and reiki. To my immense surprise, I found out I was pregnant 2 weeks later.
Miracle stories of conception are both inspiring and annoying in equal measure and it would not be right to say that this is a golden ticket. However, I can't deny that Karen's therapies helped me to keep me grounded, made me feel like I was giving myself the best possible chance and encouraged a sense of well-being which I had been neglecting previously. For that reason - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Karen for any of the services she offers, she is kind, understanding and knowledgeable. This journey can be hard and long and some self-care is of utmost importance. Yvonne, Aberdeen
Overall I've really enjoyed being part of the case study and it has been interesting to be involved in something new. I find the sessions to be relaxing and comforting. I particularly enjoy the massage of the sacral area as I seem to hold a lot of tension in this area which can lead to discomfort.
As always Karen is very good at creating a tranquil and soothing environment and will always listen to all concerns and issues that I might have been having. I'd hope to continue the fertility massage alongside some reflexology (which I had been receiving prior to the massage) Although I have not yet succeeded in becoming pregnant, I have commenced fertility treatment and in order to give this the best possible chances of working, I do find the services offered by Karen are greatly supportive to my mental health and sense of well-being.
