Mindful Body Bristol

Bristol-based mobile massage therapy and baby massage courses. Holistic, pregnancy and postpartum massage delivered in the comfort of your own home.

Baby massage course held in Clifton, Bristol suitable for parents with babies from birth to 1 years old. Hi, I’m Jess, the Founder of Mindful Body! It’s no great secret that day-to-day emotional stresses and anxieties – whether work, family or society – can have a profound impact on our physical wellbeing. I’m hugely passionate about creating space for people to relax, unwind and de-stress – allow

ing your mind and body to reconnect. I discovered the benefits of massage while living in London, working a stressful, demanding job and frequently struggling with anxiety. Taking that time for myself to press pause on the noise, slow down my mind and nourish my body was game changing. So much so that I decided to retrain and set up a business helping others through massage therapy. I became a mum in 2020 and my massage practice took on a new focus, training and specialising in pregnancy and postpartum massage. Parenthood is a real rollercoaster of emotions, demanding on both the mind and body. I love supporting mothers throughout their pregnancy and early parenting journeys, nourishing body, mind and baby through the power of touch. Recently I qualified as a Certified Infant Massage Instructor, so that I can continue to support families by passing on the benefits and joy of massage to parents and their babies. If you have questions about any of my services, please get in touch, I’d love to hear from you!

✨COSY WINTER POSTPARTUM MASSAGE ✨

Had to share this dreamy little set up at a client's house yesterday. A beautiful postpartum massage for a gorgeous mamma, cosy in the fire-lit comfort of her own living room.

We stopped midway through for baby to feed, then she curled up tightly to her mammas chest and they both snoozed, cocooned in their warm happy home, while I completed the massage on the legs.

Always a pleasure and a privilege to massage women postpartum, to be part of their healing journey and to be welcomed into their homes 💕

💛 WHAT OIL SHOULD I USE TO MASSAGE MY BABY? 💛

A common question - and something covered in my Baby Massage Course - is what oil should I use to massage my baby.

These days there are so many products on the shelves, each marketed to parents as the 'must have' thing for their babies. It's a minefield of choice!

When it comes to baby massage oils, there is no single product or brand that is 'the one' to use. Rather, the recommendation is simply to use an organic, plant-based oil, as opposed to a manufactured or mineral oil.

Plant-based oils are safe for our bodies to consume and process and are packed with lots of benefits for our skin and bodies. And you can rest assured that if your baby happens to lick some off their own or your skin, it's not at all harmful to their system.

In my courses, I use 100% organic sunflower oil, but there are many other oil types available too, such as coconut, grapeseed, apricot kernal, etc.

A simple checklist to help you source your oil:

💛 Plant based - from a natural source ie. Sunflower, coconut, etc
💛 100% organic cold pressed - this harvesting method keeps the nutrient properties of the oil intact
💛 No other added ingredients - with the exception of naturally occuring vitamins, such as Vitamin E which is commonly found in a lot of 'off the shelf' baby massage oils
💛 No added fragrances - to allow baby to smell you and maintain that strong connection during massage
💛 Health food shops are an excellent place to find suitable oils

Any other questions about oils or baby massage in general, just drop me a DM.

Happy massaging! 🙏🏻

Nice to meet you! ✨👋🏻

A few new followers and quite a lengthy social media hiatus, so I thought it would be a good chance to say hello and tell you a bit about myself!

I'm Jess and I created Mindful Body around 3 years ago. After years of working in stressful jobs and struggling with anxiety, I knew it was time to explore something new. I retrained in massage therapy and have never looked back!

I'm passionate about providing a safe space for people to unwind, take a breath and reconnect their minds and bodies. I believe deeply in the power of nurturing touch and how it can benefit everyone physically and emotionally.

In particular I love providing massage for women during pregnancy and postpartum, providing a little cocoon of calm and nourishment at such a huge time of transition for both body and mind.

Most recently I became a Certified Infant Massage Instructor, so now also run Baby Massage Courses - enabling me to pass on the joy of massage to parents and their babies 🤗

My other loves are dark chocolate, red wine, a great book, a Netflix drama, charity shops and of course my gorgeous daughter Martha 💞

Hope to see you soon for a massage or on one of my courses. My DMs are always open if you'd like to say hello or ask a question ✨
