Prenatal Massage Therapy

Prenatal Massage Therapy provides a healthy attitude and treatment to help a mother along through all her pregnancy stages. Her comfort, care and relaxation are top priority. A pregnancy massage is different from a traditional Swedish Massage, as it involves lighter, shorter movements of the abdomen, lower back and sacral areas, especially in the first trimester. Deep massage or pressure is never used in these areas to ensure baby’s comfort and safety.
 


The therapeutic benefits of a professional pregnancy massage administered by a Registered Massage Therapist include increasing relaxation and circulation while promoting good health, increasing flexibility and energy level by day while also soothing and relaxing mom’s sore, expanding muscles for a better night’s sleep.


A pregnancy massage also promotes increased good health, self healing, and helps to reduce water retention, ease physical stress due to mom's changing body as well as alleviate physiological stress that comes along with the stresses of daily life.
