Give yourself a nurturing massage to ease the physical pains and emotional stress that pregnancy can inflict upon you.
- Reduce stress and promote relaxation.
- Reduce edema, high blood pressure, relieve varicose veins, and increase blood circulation.
- Ease hormonal, respiratory, urinary,and other physiological conditions during pregnancy.
- Decrease and eliminate musculoskeletal strain and pain.
- It is usually safe to recieve massage right up to your due date and beyond (unless you are on bed rest, which requires more care and attention).
- Schedule a session on your due date - a massage is a great way to prepare your body for the experience of giving birth.
- Plan on using massage therapy in the second and third trimester of your pregnancy. You are more likely to experience back, leg and hip pain during this time.
- I feel massage is a wonderful way to nurture women during pregnancy, making this the most meaningful work of my life.
