Hi, my name is Angela Westley. I am a practising midwife in the Highlands. I have always had a keen interest in complementary therapies. This would have been my career of choice had I not succeeded in becoming a midwife. My passion for combining midwifery and complementary therapies comes from my personal experience as a mum who suffered from hyperemesis (severe sickness in pregnancy). Having completed my Diploma in Midwifery Complementary Therapies, I now have the knowledge and the skills to offer women an alternative solution for common pregnancy issues that can complement their existing NHS antenatal and postnatal care. I am also qualified in Midwifery Acupuncture including Preconception care, Clinical Hypnosis for Pregnancy and Birth, and Restore C-Section Scar therapy massage. I am insured with Fedant and have a full disclosure check. *Please note that the acupuncture service is not currently available https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/3bd9ce86-e0a4-4549-9e4c-6c1342358430/LAUREN_HIGHLAND_NATAL_THERAPIES_massage_inverness.jpg Meet the Midwives - Lauren. Hello! My name is Lauren MacLean, I am a registered midwife working in the Highlands. I have always been interested in complementary therapies and have seen first hand how effective they can be for women during pregnancy and birth. Caring and getting to know women and their families during this transition is a huge privilege. Completing a Diploma in Midwifery Complementary Therapies has given me the stepping stone to create more choice for women in facilitating a holistic approach to their pregnancy and birth experience. Combining both professions has added to what was already a purposeful career. I am insured with Fedant and have a full disclosure check. https://www.highlandnataltherapies.com/therapies daily 0.75 2024-01-08 https://www.highlandnataltherapies.com/treatments daily 0.75 2025-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/1636720063284-IM854NSD90U0ZLQPV1NU/pexels-cottonbro-7235054.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/1637229792130-VC5R5M41ADZSMFPOLPDC/unsplash-image-zeA-vi0nF4Y.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/1636720244226-OBT4K0LKHF6U08ASUUA6/pexels-elina-fairytale-3865561.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/aec94451-5d99-4ca8-ad5b-09449a7d7815/pexels-lucas-mendes-3094435.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/1637089964628-EYHZHP3V8RM04JHQICF9/unsplash-image-0FHNXqyqgg4.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/1680174541832-N80R7UQGKGO2LFA62NJ4/unsplash-image-QgcdtM9rA5s.jpg Treatments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617a78cf1719683aa8b6bae0/b0d2f164-9ebb-4841-8f3c-f459c3c2cb0d/highland+natal+therapies+aromatherapy+inverness Treatments - Aromatherapy Allow us to soothe your aches away with a therapeutic massage using a bespoke blend of essential oils chosen to meet your specific needs.
