Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy is a wonderful period of expectancy but can also take a toll on the mother-to-be emotionally and physically. Many changes occur which can induce stress and cause discomfort for you and your baby. As you adapt to your new body and the changes taking place, massage can be a key ingredient to your physical and emotional well-being.

The benefits include:

• Total relaxation - encourages sleep and can aid in relaxation during birth
• Boosts circulation - oxygen and essential nutrients to you and your baby
• Eases muscular tension and pain
• Relieves pressures on joints and ligaments
• Improves digestion
• Reduces swelling - Oedema of the ankles and feet
• Eases emotional stress and anxiety
• Eliminates toxins which can reduce fatigue and provide more energy
• Promotes deeper breathing
• Improves skin condition - can reduce stretch marks

I understand how challenging this time can be for you and take special care to make sure your massage is tailor-made for your needs with a sequence of gentle stretching, efflurage and kneading which will release endorphins and provide the 'feel good' factor to both you and the baby growing inside you.

Your massage is tailor-made to your needs, providing a sequence of techniques to encourage deep relaxation and reduce stress.
