Jo Moon, a leading acupuncturist and long time Chimney House friend will be running a very special day for pregnant ladies and their partners in the luxurious and relaxing surrounds of The Chimney House. 

It is a real privilege to have such an amazing group of specialists together in one space for a really insightful and useful workshop. 

The day will be indulgent, educational and pampering, dedicated to a selection of wonderful therapies including Acupressure, Yoga, Hypnotherapy and Reflexology, all specifically tailored towards looking after mums to be and to ultimately prepare for a beautiful birth experience.

The perfectly titled workshop 'Prepare For a Natural & Beautiful Birth' has been carefully curated by Jo alongside leading Sheffield professionals who specialise in childbirth. They're dedicated to supporting and celebrating you, your partner and your journey into parenthood.

This luxurious event for will be set in two parts: the morning for pregnant ladies and their birth partners, starting with a couple's acupressure class - Jo will take you through a practical approach to support natural pain relief, relaxation, an efficient labour and partner involvement. Moving on to a delicious lunch, time to relax and meet friends, and then an afternoon just for the ladies to indulge in group classes like pregnancy-yoga, and to be treated to additional therapies.
