Hello! I’m Janelle Fontaine. Registered massage therapist and mama of two young boys. I have a deep passion for supporting birthing folks through massage therapy, postpartum support and online education in the childbearing years. As a care provider both at work and at home, what deeply nourishes me is time spent on my bike - you’ll often find me riding my longtail bike with the two kids in tow or in the garden growing dahlias. I love movement, often choosing to lift weights or dance as a way to feel strong and free. And my favourite way to decompress is a hot cup of tea. If you are curious about my approach to treatment or would like more information about the postpartum period and how I can support you, have a look at my website, nurturingthemother.ca or nurturingthemother.ca on Instagram. There you will find my online presence and you can get a real sense of who I am and my approach to care.
If you've had a c-section and are looking for support in healing after your cesarean. Note: The entirety of the treatment isn't spent on your tummy and scar.
