Mother To Be Massage

Pregnancy massage is a specialised, gentle therapy designed to support the body during pregnancy, helping to relieve common discomforts while promoting relaxation and well-being. It is performed with safe techniques that accommodate the changes in an expecting mother’s body.

During pregnancy, the body undergoes physical, hormonal, and emotional changes, leading to discomfort such as back pain, swollen feet, stress, and muscle tension. A prenatal massage helps to ease these symptoms, improve circulation, and promote a sense of calm for both mother and baby.

I can provide bespoke designed massage pillows, getting you into a comfortable position for this type of massage. Prenatal massage can improve specific symptoms unique to pregnancy i.e. arm and leg swelling which can be reduced by increasing blood and lymph circulation in the body.

We can reduce chronic muscle tension, restoring our client’s natural posture and lessening back pain.
