These sessions are designed for moms-to-be in their 2nd and 3rd trimester of pregnancy. It is a healthy way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness. Massage relieves many of the normal discomforts experienced during pregnancy, such as backaches, stiff neck, leg cramps, headaches and edema (or swelling). In addition, massage reduces stress on weight-bearing joints, encourages blood and lymph circulation, helps to relax nervous tension which aids in better sleep, and can help relieve depression or anxiety caused by hormonal changes.
What differentiates Prenatal Massage from other massage sessions is primarily the positioning of the patient and a full understanding of contraindications that are specific to a woman who is pregnant. Many massage modalities can be used in a Prenatal Massage. You may prefer an overall Swedish Massage for relaxation and improved circulation, or perhaps a more focused session to help alleviate specific areas of discomfort you are experiencing. The pressure during the massage can range from light to firm, depending upon your personal preference.
