As you may be aware, the Collective has been closed for some time.
I moved my practice to Yorkeys K**b where I continue to provide massage, pelvic alignment and internal pelvic release work, and collaborate with other practitioners in the perinatal space, including Jaye Seal who I partner with to deliver Body Balance classes, Active Birth Workshops and Closing the Bones group ceremonies.
I am also now providing outreach services to Innisfail and Gympie, and have new online offerings launching soon.
If you're not already, please be sure to connect with me over at Shelly Langford, as this page will be closing soon.

We have 6 x free trial class passes available for our Prenatal Yoga Fusion Body Balance Classes this month.
There's 3 spaces available for the February 19 class, and 3 spaces on February 26, open to pregnant women in their second trimester.
Classes are held at the Brinsmead Hall on Wednesday nights from 6.15pm and we have a new 5-week series starting in March. The free trial is the perfect taster to see if this class is the right fit for you.
Did you know your beautiful baby can be tucked up safely beside you during your nurturing postnatal massage?
You will be supported with breaks for feeding and changes if required and you can bring along a support person to help with baby too.
Think of it as a soft and cosy nest to land in during your postpartum time, and a safe and supportive space to come as you are.

Research recently published in the European Journal of Pediatrics compares homeopathic and conventional pediatric care for acute illnesses in Indian children during their first 24 months revealed significant benefits of homoeopathy.
Children receiving homoeopathic care experienced fewer sick days, sickness episodes, and respiratory illnesses, with reduced antibiotic use and lower treatment costs.
This study by Menachem Oberbaum, et al. underscores the potential of homoeopathy, using conventional medicine as a safety backdrop, as a cost-effective and safe primary care option for early childhood in low and middle-income settings. Homoeopathy is widely accepted in India, supported by government policies and is growing in demand. 📈

Holistic pregnancy, empowered birth and conscious parenting support for parents in Far North Queensland
This collective was called into being as a support network for empowered pregnancy, birth and parenting experiences in Far North Queensland.
We advocate, support and celebrate empowered and positive pregnancy and birth experiences, bodily autonomy, mother-led care, and informed decision-making in homebirth, freebirth and hospital settings.
Supportive and welcoming gatherings of mothers, fathers, partners, bellies and babes meet regularly in Cairns, Kuranda, Mission Beach and Townsville, providing a safe space to:
share positive and empowered pregnancy and birth stories
connect with other mindful and conscious parents
and to seek support and information about holistic pregnancy and natural birth support in Far North Queensland.
Whether you’re currently pregnant, a new mum, dad or partner, or a parent with a growing family, this is an inclusive and welcoming space to connect with like-minded friends.
The gatherings are facilitated by doula Shelly Langford, and occasional special guest holistic pregnancy and birth support practitioners. But this is ultimately a casual and friendly social network by parents, for parents.
Visit our Events page to look for the next gathering closest to you. And feel free to join our closed community if you live in the Far North Queensland region, and would like to connect with others in the homebirth, freebirth and empowered birth community.
