My Name:
Renee McBride
What We Do:

Mind and Body Scotland is owned by Renee who provides Hypnotherapy, aspects of pregnancy, birth and early parenting support including hypnobirthing, pregnancy massage, Doula services and Brain Working Recursive Therapy. Renee began working as a Complimentary Therapist in 2003 after training as a Reiki Master and a Massage Therapist. Specialising in Antenatal Care and Parenting Renee became a Well Mother Practitioner 2007 and then trained with NCT graduating from the University of Bedfordshire as an Antenatal Teacher 2012. At the same time she completed her training and became a recognised Birth & Postnatal Doula with Doula UK and the Scottish Doula Network.

As her work progressed Renee recognised that Hypnosis would help many of her clients, i.e. those with phantom limb pain, those for whom massage was not appropriate e.g. clients with cancer and the mums that she had been supporting for a number of years with teaching breathing, positions for labour & birth and relaxations. The needs of her clients encouraged her to train in Clinical Hypnotherapy 2014 and to go further and specialise in Hypnobirthing 2014 & 2017, Weight Management & Eating Issues 2016 & most recently Psychosexual Dysfuction 2017 and Brain Working Recursive Therapy (BWRT) 2017.

Currently Renee is a Mentor of newly trained Doulas for Doula UK and a lay member of the NHS Lothian MSLC.

Queen’s Park Acupuncture & Massage – Laurie Heaps
My Name:
Laurie Heaps
Business Type:
What We Do:

I am both a massage therapist and a Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncturist working in Glasgow, Southside. I have a special interest in women's health as well as acute and chronic pain. I can combine pregnancy massage with acupuncture to achieve the ultimate relaxation and individual treatment for your priorities and pregnancy needs. I can also use acupressure points (acupuncture without the needles) during your pregnancy massage treatment. I hold a remedial and sports massage qualification and some of these techniques can be used as appropriate.

I offer pregnancy massage for any stage of pregnancy. I use massage and / or acupressure from 36 weeks pregnant to help you to prepare for labour. This involves acupressure / acupuncture points on mainly your legs. The majority of my clients find that having weekly treatments helps reduce the likelihood of being induced. This treatment supports cervix ripening (early stages of dilation). Treatment sessions to teach your partner how to massage you are available. During these sessions, I will teach your partner relevant acupressure for labour preparation and for labour. A booklet with all the points taught is also provided.

If you do go past your due date, we can use a combination of massage and acupuncture to support you starting labour. Again I can teach your partner which acupressure points to use at home to support your labour.

At your appointment I will discuss your priorities, any health issues and check that you are happy with the treatment I have planned. Treatments can be adjusted to suit you. I have a Belloost pregnancy pillow for you to lie on when massaging your back and shoulders. It has a centre section cut away so that your belly is not squashed. Pregnant clients have commented on how comfortable this pillow is. Of course if you would prefer to lie on your side then that is good too.

Treatments are also available post pregnancy. Ask me about the healing and relaxing mother roasting with moxibustion.

I am MSc (Distinction) educated, holding an Acupuncture Diploma from Middlesex University. My thesis on acupuncture and endometriosis was awarded the prize for best dissertation in my year.
I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC), The British Medical Acupuncture Society (BMAS) and The Complementary Therapists Association (CThA). I am fully insured and my acupuncture clinic is licensed by Glasgow City Council.

If you have any questions about treatments with me, please get in touch. I offer a free 15 minutes, no obligation discovery call

Annie Minnaar - Massage therapist | Doula | Scotland
My Name:
Annie Minnaar
What We Do:

Hi! I am a Complementary Therapist, Doula and Yoga teacher based in Fife, Scotland.

My passion for supporting others through holistic health and wellbeing started early on. After completing a Reiki certification in 2010, I went on to become an ITEC qualified Complementary Therapist in 2012.

Over the years since, I furthered my skills as a Massage Therapist, with a yearlong internship in Remedial and Deep Tissue Massage. I specialised in Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum Massage with WellMother in 2020. I also offer my services as a Birth & Postnatal Doula, being a member of the Scottish Doula Network. More recently, I completed a Yoga Teacher Training and went on to deepen my study into Pregnancy Yoga.

My bodywork focuses on supporting my clients to enter a deep state of relaxation, easing muscle tension and stress. My treatments restore the "rest and recover" aspect of the nervous system, promoting the body's own natural healing mechanisms. I truly care about those around me and feel a humble sense of joy and gratitude in supporting my clients. My empathetic nature and peaceful energy shine through my work and I strive to be there for my clients so that they can feel empowered, listened to and cared for. I am passionate about my work, which is motivated by kindness, compassion and love.

I currently offer my services in and around Fife and in Edinburgh City Centre.
