Pre-natal Massage

During a pre-natal massage, many techniques are combined to relieve the discomforts of pregnancy while helping the mother stay connected to her constantly changing body.

The session has a Swedish Massage foundation, and may include other techniques, such as Deep Tissue Massage or Myofascial Release.

The deep relaxation that occurs with the nurturing touch of the therapist can help the mother deepen her bond with the unborn child and prepare her body for childbirth.

Generally, after the first trimester, the mother will be positioned on a special bodycushion to support her changing body.

During the last trimester the mother will lie on her side, supported with pillows to ensure comfort and ease.  Many pregnant women find massage an invaluable part of a healthy, happy pregnancy.
