Prenatal Massage

Sometimes, it is just a healing experience for the expectant mom to be able to get off her feet and rest while someone provides some needed nurturing for her!

The main goal of Prenatal massage is to relieve the tension associated with the changes that happen to the body with pregnancy. This can include reducing the discomfort she feels in the hips, pelvis, low back and shoulders. Relieving the stress and tension in these areas can aid in improving the quality of sleep she can experience at night. It can also provide an increase in circulation of her legs and feet, which can reduce the swelling associated with pregnancy.

Prenatal massage is done on the skin with oil, gel or lotions and uses mostly Swedish and Myofascial* techniques for tension release. It is performed with the client in a very comfortable, side lying position.

This session can be a great gift to any woman to help ease some of the discomfort she experiences with pregnancy.

* Myofacial refers to the fascia, or sheath, surrounding and separating muscle tissue
