Pregnancy massage can help you by:

 

• Releasing endorphins (the happy hormone) aiding relaxation, a sense of calm and aiding better sleep.

• It is also a great way to release that extra muscle tension causing aches and pains.

• Reduction of swelling

• Reduction of stress on joints

• Improvement of skin

 

Due to the body changes within the joints and ligaments massages are much lighter than a normal holistic massage. Deep tissue massages are also not recommended.

  

Side lying massage

​

It is not safe for a pregnant lady to lie on their tummies during a massage treatment. For this reason a client is asked to lay onto their side, cushions are used to prop up the client as well as to support the bump.

From this position I will be able to massage the back without causing any issues to the baby. It is extremely comfortable for you and your bump aiding complete relaxation.

 

Seated

​

The other position which is suitable for pregnancy massage is the seated position, the client leans onto some cushions which are on the couch. This is very comfortable for ladies in all stages of their pregnancy.

 

Laying on your back

​

For a full body massage once we have massaged your back we change your position so that you are laid onto your back. From here I am able to give you a highly relaxing full body massage which includes your face, neck, shoulders, back of your legs and feet.
