Surya Signature 6-Week Mother Baby Postpartum Series

The 40 days following birth is a precious time for mother and baby, formative for the baby and re-formative for the mother.  In these 6 weeks, the mother's physiology is as delicate as her newborn's, which creates an opportunity to reset the body, making it stronger than ever.  Surya's in-home postpartum treatments help mothers not only recover swiftly from childbirth, but find themselves feeling strong and better than ever.  Hormones are also rebalanced, which help more successful lactation, better breast and uterine health, and speedy and natural weight loss. A healthy, happy, and nurtured mother can best nurture her baby. 

Surya's highly-trained Ayurvedic Doulas also teach parents how to provide Ayurvedic baby massage using oils prepared just for their child. These massages help establish deep and lasting communication between parents and child and even more, as research shows, develop stronger immune systems, healthier behavioral patterns, and more rapid motor skill development. Surya’s Doulas come to your home 1-6 days a week for around 2 hours, each visit centered around a deeply soothing and restorative postpartum abhyanga massage. Each visit is also an opportunity to receive help with lactation, diet, baby issues, and any other support you might need. Surya's Doulas provide time-proven herbal remedies, and teach you and your partner how to prepare simple and nourishing Ayurvedic meals, good for both of you, and the baby. This package is also a beautiful gift, as it strongly contributes to a solid foundation of enduring health and well-being for both mother and baby, and for the entire family.
