Pregnancy Zenthai
December 4 – 8, 2025
Pregnancy Zenthai is elegantly crafted and developed by Merryn Penington. It is birthed from the alchemy of pregnancy massage, zenthai shiatsu and remedial bodywork. This body of work is enveloped by ancestral healing practices and cultural rights of passage, including womb ritual and rebozo. This Level 3 training offers a unification of science, spirit and energetics.

Our commitment is to provide a training that works specifically to treat the cause of the symptoms, in a natural holistic way. Often during pregnancy it is explained that symptoms are a natural experience to endure and many are unable to be treated with orthodox medicines. With the support of Pregnancy Zenthai, we find natural ways to support blood and chi, soothe the peaks of discomforts and optimise mums' health, and the babies' playgorund for growing.
