Massage and the Childbearing Years
Pregnancy is a time of transformation for many reasons. Your body, mind,
and spirit are all rapidly changing as your baby grows. Massage has long been
known to reduce stress and help the body function in balance during and after
pregnancy.
Some of the benefits of prenatal massage are:
- Decrease muscle tension, support range of motion
- Alleviate physical discomforts or pain during pregnancy
- Reduce anxiety, stress, and tension
- Elevate the mood
- Support a healthy in utero environment
- Foster deep breathing
- Minimize nausea and stimulate digestion
- Prepares emotionally, mentally, and physically for labor
- Speed up circulation and decrease swelling
Each massage is tailored to your unique needs on the day of treatment.
During the second and third trimester, your messages will be done in a
side lying position with support pillows that make for a
comforting and relaxing
experience.
Postpartum massage
Postpartum provides the same benefits as pregnancy massage of calming the
entire nervous system and is an essential support for the demands of being a
new mother.
