Highland Natal Therapies Reviews 

I had an amazing time with Highland Natal Therapies! From my first phone call to the session with Lauren in their charming little room, everything seemed perfectly personalized for me. Lauren walked me through all the available options and inquired about which pregnancy symptoms I wanted to address. At 36 weeks pregnant, I was really struggling with heartburn that disturbed my sleep multiple times a night. We chose reflex zone therapy, and Lauren's clear explanations and her warm, calming, and knowledgeable demeanor made it easy for me to ask questions. The treatment was incredibly soothing, and I was surprised to find the improvements continued in the days and nights afterward. My heartburn decreased significantly, allowing me to finally enjoy uninterrupted sleep! This treatment is definitely worth it for the relaxation alone, whether you're pregnant or know someone who is. I had a wonderful experience and can't wait to return for another session with Lauren soon!

Hi had been suffering with restless legs and cramps. I had a lower leg massage which started with a lovely foot soak. Angela had great advice to relieve symptoms and made me my own blend of aromatherapy oil. I also got a small bottle to take away and use after. Angela checked in with me post treatment which has really helped my symptoms. I have booked in for more treatments they I can’t wait for, a complete holistic experience!

I went to Angela for several treatments, including aromatherapy and reflexology. Angela was so friendly and helpful and the treatments were so relaxing and helped to ease pelvic girdle pain.
Looking forward to my postnatal treatment! Thanks again xx

I first seen Angela at around 24 weeks for acupuncture as I was experiencing very painful sciatica. I had 2 sessions and was completely blown away by the relief I had! It really was life changing.
I booked a full body massage the week before my elective section as I knew I would be feeling uncomfy by then - it was like Angela had pressed a reset button.
I was able to really relax during my last week of pregnancy (ache free!) and enjoy some real quality time with my toddler before baby arrived!
We are so lucky to have these services set up by Angela and Lauren in the Highlands, I’m already looking forward to my postnatal massage!
The biggest Thank you!

Having seen both Lauren & Angela during my pregnancy, I cannot recommend their services enough. Initially I saw Lauren for a leg massage due to restless legs, which worked wonders! And Angela for a back massage, relieving lower back pain I was experiencing. They are both so professional and helpful, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to friends & family. I just wish I had more time for more treatments during my pregnancy!

Can’t thank these girls enough for the positive impact they had on a very difficult pregnancy. The empathy and care shown will never be forgotten. Also, the best treatments ever! Highly recommend!

I had treatments from both Lauren and Angela during my pregnancy. Both ladies make you feel so relaxed from the second you step through the door. It's lovely to talk about you and your pregnancy and to chat all things through with them as you get your treatment (if you wish, or enjoy your treatment in peace).

I had two full body massages and a birth prep treatment. I can highly recommend both. Lauren and Angela take the time to listen to you and any symptoms you may be facing before tayloring the treatment to you. The oil blends smell amazing and you get to take it home with you at the end to massage into bump or pop into a relaxing bath.

I cannot recommend Highland Natal Therapies enough, if you're expecting or are postpartum, don't hesitate to get booked in, you won't regret it!

I had a very straight forward start to my second pregnancy but still wanted to make sure to make the most of the opportunity to use the services of Highland Natal Therapies and enjoyed an aromatherapy massage. This helped me relax and destress as I prepared to bring another baby in to our family.

At 32 weeks my baby was found to be breech. Although this still allowed time for him to turn, the consultants chose to book me a provisional date for a c-section which is something I was keen to avoid. On the run up to my next positioning scan I chose to go back to Lauren at HNT for their moxibustion treatment. This was a fascinating, relaxing treatment and was a huge success as at my next scan baby had turned!

My next visit to HNT was for their birth preparation treatment on the run up to my due date and, again, I loved this treatment! Lauren was so knowledgeable and caring and I knew I was in good hands. We topped this off with another aromatherapy massage to help me relax and encourage my body to prepare for labour.

I'm so grateful to Lauren for helping me prepare for welcoming my baby at each of these different stages of my pregnancy and would recommend HNT to every pregnant person, even if it's just for some 'me time'!

I booked an appointment with Lauren back in April when I was about 16 weeks pregnant as I wanted a relaxing massage. It was the best decision as not only was the massage amazing I learnt about the Reflexology treatments available. I have had at least one treatment a month in my pregnancy and can always feel the results. From back/hip pain to horrific heartburn and indigestion anything I give to Lauren she manages to relieve my pregnancy symptoms and the sleep I get after a treatment is worth it alone! Lauren is such an approachable person, always making me feel comfortable, making me laugh and giving the best advice! My treatments with Lauren have been so beneficial to both my physical and mental health during pregnancy and I’d have been lost (and probably unable to walk) without all of her help and support.

I had the most wonderful back, neck & shoulder massage by Angela at 37 weeks pregnant. Everything about the experience was excellent! From the ease of where HNT are located, to the actual treatment. It was so relaxing. I felt so good after & I slept so well that evening which was such a treat having suffered insomnia in the run up to my treatment. Hoping to squeeze in another treatment before I give birth! Can’t recommend enough & wishing Angela & Lauren all the success on their venture!

My first visit to HNT was pure bliss. I had the reflex zone treatment and I would highly recommend it! Lauren was so warm, welcoming and full of knowledge. I was experiencing some mild sciatica and general fatigue over the past couple of weeks and not only have I not experienced any pain or discomfort since my treatment, I’ve also had a very welcomed boost of energy. The foot and lower leg massage at the end was heavenly and I can’t wait to book in again! I would highly recommend Lauren at HNT to anyone who is pregnant.

Every part of my experience with Highland Natal Therapies was perfect. During the initial phone conversation with Lauren we discussed how she might be able to relieve some of my pregnancy symptoms (pelvic pain and insomnia) and I decided to book a package of treatments over my remaining weeks of pregnancy: reflex zone therapy, full body massage, back neck and shoulder massage and then a final additional session of accupressure when I was overdue. Lauren carefully explained the benefits of the different pressure points and essential oils and, being a midwife, was also able to answer some of my questions about birth and the hospital, and give advice on what I should pack in my hospital bag. I found this information invaluable and it really put me at ease. Spending those few hours in the beautiful, cozy treatment room with Lauren, who is such a kind, caring and wonderful person, was a highlight of my pregnancy, and helped me to fully relax as I waited patiently for the arrival of my little one.

Such a lovely experience with Highland Natal Therapies! Everything from the initial phone consultation through to my treatment with Lauren in their gorgeous wee room felt like it was tailored just for me.
Lauren talked me through all the options and asked about which pregnancy symptoms I was hoping to target.
I have had heartburn throughout my pregnancy and at week 36 was finding it really hard to sleep with the heartburn waking me up sometimes multiple times a night.
We decided to go for reflex zone therapy.
Lauren explained exactly what she was working on in a way that was easy to understand and her friendly, calm and knowledgeable manner meant that I felt I could ask her anything.
The treatment itself was so lovely & relaxing but I was amazed that the benefits kept coming in the days/nights following the treatment. My heartburn eased significantly and for the first time in a long time I have been able to sleep through the night without heartburn waking me up!
Even if just for the relaxation this is definitely a treatment worth investing in if you are pregnant (or as a treat for a pregnant family member or friend). I loved it and I am already looking forward to going back to see Lauren for another treatment very soon! 🤞🏼

I’m 35 weeks pregnant and have been going to see the Lauren for full body massages and reflex zone therapy for the past couple of months. I always look forward to my treatments as not only are they extremely relaxing and effective, but Lauren is the loveliest person and so so knowledgeable and full of great advice! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a treatment from Highland Natal Therapies and I will genuinely be so sad that I can’t go for regular appointments after I give birth! Thankyou Lauren, you’re the best! xxx

I was thrilled when Angela and Lauren launched their business not only as a midwifery colleague and friend but as I was pregnant too. They really have created something wonderful and very much needed in the Highlands.

I would have loved to have treatments like these within my first pregnancy which went over due and led to induction.

The second time round I was lucky to have Angela as my community midwife and she also provided my treatments with HNT.
I opted for the birth preparation package.
Angela provided a full consultant and informed me of any possible side effects.

During the latter weeks I'd really struggled with migraines, Angela spent some time on points that would help relieve these and following each treat these became less frequent and much less intense.

My final treatment was on my due date following this and using the essential oils provided I started to have some contractions. They were a little irregular and infrequent but at 40+2 the real deal happened.
I was thrilled to not need an induction and achieved a beautiful homebirth of our second daughter with Angela present as my community midwife.

I couldn't recommend HNT highly enough. I felt very looked after, listened too, relaxed and empowered.
I was provided with pressure points and positions to aid improving babies position for birth and fantastic essential oils.

There is no doubt I would use their services again if I was to become pregnant again.

Good luck with your wonderful business ladies.

I had an appointment with Lauren for Reflex Zone therapy, due to a bit of lower back pain which had been bothering me pre-pregnancy and a little twinge in sciatic-y area. She was so welcoming and knowledgable and the whole session was very relaxed - it was great! I definitely think it has helped my aches and pains. Thank you Lauren!

I was just desperate to book in from the moment I heard about Highland Natal Therapies! I recently had my first Reflex Zone Therapy to help ease my lingering nausea and some back and hip pain. Lauren, who did my treatment, was just so lovely and welcoming. I instantly felt at ease from the moment I walked into the treatment room! The whole experience was amazing, I was fascinated and mind blown at what she was highlighting during the treatment and how she then managed to work on my problem areas through the reflexology! I’ve absolutely felt a lot more comfortable since my treatment, and I will definitely be back for more throughout the course of my pregnancy. I couldn’t recommend this more to any other Mama’s to be! Thank you Lauren xx

I recently won a competition for a treatment with Highland Natal Therapies. I went in for my back, neck and shoulder massage yesterday with Lauren and I couldn't have had a better experience. I didn't realise how much I needed it at 29 weeks pregnant! Lauren was absolutely lovely and the massage was so relaxing. For once my whole body doesn't ache and I feel stress free. The lavender blend made for a great night sleep too. Really great experience and can't wait to book back in for more treatments. Thank you again!

Excellent customer service from my initial enquiry to the treatment itself. Angela was so attentive and after our consultation, recommended that the Reflex Zone Therapy might be a good place to start. It was perfect! I felt like I was walking on air for a few days after and slept so well too! The therapy suite was extremely comfortable and relaxing. I hope to squeeze in another treatment before baby arrives.

Angela is very talented and professional. Her cosy and serene treatment room is warm and welcoming and your comfort and well-being is paramount to her throughout the session.
If you are considering visiting for reflexology you certainly won’t be disappointed.
A wonderful experience visiting Highland Natal Therapies :)
