Prenatal and Postpartum Massage

Prenatal massage is therapeutic bodywork that focuses on the special needs of the mother-to-be as her body goes through the dramatic changes of the childbirth experience - pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Postpartum massage is designed to help restore the body to it's pre-pregnancy condition and to address the stress of carrying and caring for a newborn. It can speed recovery by bringing relief from sore muscles an helping the mother to relax. Abdominal massage helps to shrink the uterus and to relieve subcutaneous scar tissue.

Body work during pregnancy can:

  • Provide tranquil relaxation
  • Relive stress on weight bearing joints
  • Reduce swelling
  • Alleviate neck & back pain caused by muscle imbalance or weakness
  • Provide emotional support through nurturing touch
  • Stimulate the endocrine system, therby helping to stabilize hormones
  • Increase muscle tone, enhancing metabolic function
  • Enhance the pliability of the skin & underlying tissues
 
Touch is vital to the mother's psychological and physical well being as she adapts to a changing body. Massage provides a nurturing touch which, in turn, nurtures the life of the unborn child.
