Services
Prenatal Sessions
Personalized prenatal sessions provide nutritional guidance, movement options for discomfort relief, and physiological birth education. Sessions include bodywork for stress reduction, self-care techniques, and tools for informed decision-making. Each visit lasts 1.5-2 hours with ongoing text and telephone support included in package deals.
Postpartum Package
The 4-session postpartum package includes abdominal massage, bengkung belly binding, herbal treatments, and recovery resources. Initial visits last approximately 2 hours, with subsequent sessions lasting 1.5-2 hours. Clients receive access to online resources and ongoing support for 6-8 weeks of early postpartum recovery.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Fascia Therapy addresses physical discomforts through gentle, non-invasive techniques that release tension in the body's connective tissue. This therapy benefits infants, children, and adults by improving mobility, reducing pain, and enhancing overall wellness through the craniosacral fascial system.
Reiki Healing
Reiki sessions promote stress reduction and relaxation while supporting the body's natural healing processes. Available in-person or remotely, this energy therapy helps balance emotional, mental, and physical well-being during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery through gentle energy transmission.
Theta Healing
Theta Healing identifies and transforms limiting beliefs through conscious theta brainwave meditation. This technique addresses emotional blocks and trauma, replacing negative patterns with empowering beliefs to create a foundation for healthy, joyful living during family transitions.

Falon was a wonderful support for my husband and I before, during and after birth! As first time parents, we were both feeling very nervous about labour and delivery, particularly during these pandemic times. Falon helped us along the way by providing knowledge and encouragement in the most compassionate way. After having a couple prenatal visits with her, we felt a lot more confident. I never really had a birth plan, just wanted to get through it - and I wasn't judged for that! All things considered, the beginning of labour went very smoothly thanks to her amazing tips. My husband knew exactly

Falon is a wealth of knowledge, support, and reassurance. She has found her calling and facilitates community gatherings that every new mom didnt even know she needed. Even during these unprecedented times, Falon has ensured to be available and helpful. I highly recommend her services!!!

I have attended the Mother's Circle and just attended an Intro to Aromatherapy class with Falon - VERY happy with both experiences. I am so thankful for how you have pivoted your business during 'quarantine life' to make your teachings more accessible! I will continue to support NESTED - Thank you for your abundance of knowledge!

We have hired Falon as a doula for the birth of both of my children - in 2016 and 2020. Falon was such a valued part of our birth team and was such a help getting me through both of my home births. Her cheerful attitude, kind heart, and practical tips make her an invaluable part of your birth team, and I'd highly recommend hiring Falon to ANY of my pregnant friends.

Falon provided a calming presence, amazing counterpressure, knowledge and reassurance during my labour and delivery that helped me have an empowering, natural and smooth birth. I felt in control and extremely capable thanks to her wisdom and help. HIGHLY recommend Falon to be a part of your birth experience.
