Why Choose Pregnancy Massage?

Pregnancy massage is massage therapy specifically tailored for the expectant mother’s needs. It differs from a regular massage in a couple of ways, as the mother’s body must be properly supported during the massage using specialist pillows ensuring comfort and safety for the mother & baby.

Massage techniques are also adapted to aid lymphatic flow and relax muscle fibres that may be stretched more than usual due to growing baby & bump.

Massage during pregnancy has significant benefits for both mother-to-be and developing baby. As your body adjusts to prepare itself for labour, massage can help alleviate aches & pains and provides invaluable time for rest and relaxation.

Labour

The use of massage in labour helps alleviate back pain and help to relax the mother, thereby increasing endorphin levels, the body’s natural painkillers. Massage is generally preferred during the initial stages of labour so do not be offended if your partner does not want to be touched during the later stages. Massage techniques can be taught on a one-to-one basis to partners or those providing birth-support.

Post-natal

After childbirth, massage may help provide relief from aches & pains especially those commonly experienced in the back, neck and shoulders. Massage can alleviate fluid retention and promote relaxation, helping to restore a sense of well-being in the mother.
