Pregnancy Massage

I am certified in pregnancy and postpartum massage through Nurturing the Mother®. This massage is uniquely tailored for the expecting mother's comfort and needs, as well as her immediate post-partum needs. I am available to travel to you.

What are the benefits of Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage?

• Calming Swedish massage strokes provide deep muscle relaxation, tension release and increased circulation

• Gentle range-of-motion and stretching movements to relieve pressure through neck, shoulders, rib cage, lower back and hips, and to promote greater strength, flexibility and balance

• Deep tissue work in the lower body help alleviate chronic lower back and hip pain.

• Abdominal massage for round ligament pain, to support digestion, increase circulation to the placenta and baby and to increase awareness of your baby.

• Lymph drainage strokes to reduce pregnancy induced swelling.

• Cranial-sacral and polarity therapy for physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual centering.

• Acupressure and reflexology techniques are effective in treating many common pregnancy related discomforts.

• Your baby will also benefit from the massage.
