Pregnancy & Selfcare: a Journey of Care and Magic

Pregnancy is one of the most extraordinary journeys a woman can experience. Your body creates new life — a process that is deeply transformative, magical, and at times overwhelming. During this period, selfcare is not a luxury, but a necessity. By consciously creating space for relaxation, nurturing touch, and attention to yourself, you not only support your own well-being, but also that of your growing baby.

I am Aimée Vriend, a mother of two children and a specialist in pregnancy massage with 17 years of experience. Through my personal journey into motherhood and my professional expertise, I offer you a safe and nurturing space where you can truly relax, restore, and reconnect — tailored to each phase of your journey.

Preparing for Pregnancy

If you wish to prepare your body and mind for pregnancy, my Holistic Belly Massage and Holistic Belly Ceremony are wonderful ways to support yourself.

• Holistic Belly Massage: This deeply relaxing treatment focuses on the energy pathways, organs, and the “emotional brain” in the abdominal area. It helps restore balance, improves energy flow, and strengthens your connection to your womb and self.

• Holistic Belly Ceremony: A more profound experience, combining ritual, intention, and massage, creating sacred space for new life to emerge. A powerful moment of preparation and reflection.

During Pregnancy

During the first trimester (up to 12 weeks), I recommend not receiving body massages as your body is deeply engaged in early development. However, you are very welcome for a relaxing facial — a soothing treatment to nurture yourself and bring peace to your body and mind.

From the second trimester (from 13 weeks onward), you are warmly invited for a full pregnancy massage — right up until your due date!

• I work with a special pregnancy massage table, designed with a comfortable belly space, allowing you to safely and blissfully lie on your stomach — a rare and wonderful feeling during pregnancy.

Each massage session is carefully adapted to your changing body, relieving tension, improving circulation, and bringing deep relaxation for both you and your baby.
