Greeting
I'm Sara. I have been a midwife for over 13 years. Also I have 8 years experience as an aroma massage therapist for pregnant woman, have taught maternity yoga for 7 years and have done baby massage for 1 year.
Although Japan is now richer in terms of materiality, it seems that the number of people who are isolated is increasing and spiritual and social connections are diminishing.
Especially in urban areas it is difficult to receive support from family and neighbors, so depressions and abuses are increasing.
I am also a mother. Of course the baby is cute, but I've been frustrated and cried many times.
So far, medical care has been the main focus in hospitals. But I believe that is more important to strengthen the body and mind, so pregnant women, mothers, and babies stay healthy and can have a peace of mind.
If the mother is happy, the baby will be happy, and of course the family overall will be happy. I hope I can help you make your pregnancy and childcare enjoyable and fun.
And for those who want a baby …
From the day I wanted a baby it took me more than 2 years to get pregnant.
I went through a lot of research, tried what I heard was good, but it was hard to get pregnant, and I was repeatedly irritated and sunk.
I didn't have anyone to talk about it, and my feelings were getting worse.
Let's exercise together while talking about the thoughts that we find difficult talking about to our loved ones.
Please feel free to get in touch with me.
