Polynesian Floor Treatment for Postpartum (Kahuna)

Reconnect. Reclaim. Remember.
Sacred, nurturing bodywork for women especially in the tender postpartum and mothering seasons.

For the woman carrying it all

Whether you’ve just birthed a baby,

  • are holding space for your family
  • or are in need of rest,
  • you didn’t know how much you needed, this is for you.

These sessions are offered in Linden, Johannesburg, and as part of the postpartum doula care packages at your home. Or as a deeply nourishing standalone treatment.

A grounded, clothed practice for tired, tender bodies

This unique treatment draws on the same ancient wisdom as Kahuna massage, but is offered fully clothed, on a floor mat.
It’s especially loved by mothers with young children, those who are constantly lifting, bending, carrying, and holding. It stretches, soothes, and awakens the parts of you that are often forgotten.

Expect long, grounding movements that work through tired hips, shoulders, back and legs, restoring energy flow and giving your overworked body a much-needed reset.


This is a beautiful alternative if you’re not ready for oil-based bodywork or want something deeply supportive that meets you where you are.


Not suitable during pregnancy.
Ideal for postpartum, motherhood, and beyond.

In our session, I will:

  • Create a sacred space where you feel safe, seen, and deeply cared for
  • Honour your body’s story whether you’ve just birthed or are years into mothering
  • Gently guide you out of your head and back into your body
  • Support your nervous system to settle, soften, and recalibrate
  • Encourage emotional release without words just presence and touch
  • Use ancient, intuitive techniques to ease physical tension and restore energy flow
  • Invite you to come home to yourself  your breath, your wisdom, your wholeness
  • Adapt every session to exactly what you need, in that moment

Initial Session

Whether you’re longing for silence, for nurturing, for reconnection, or for rest  I’ll meet you there.

Your initial appointment is 90 minutes. This gives us time to take a gentle but thorough history, assess what your body is asking for, and create a space that meets you fully.

Every woman is different. Every session begins with listening.

A space to be held

In every session, my intention is the same:

  • To meet you with presence.
  • To honour where you are.
  • And to hold you in a way that allows your body to soften, open, and heal.

You don’t need to arrive perfect.
You just need to arrive.

“Theoni’s postpartum visits have been an essential part of my pregnancy journey. Her support significantly contributed to my healing, addressing all aspects of my physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. The craniosacral therapy and bodywork provided relief, making it easier for me to rest after those sessions. Theoni was always accessible and available to support my emotional needs, promptly answering all my questions. The two weeks following childbirth can be extremely overwhelming, and Theoni was there to guide me through it. Thank you!”
