Pregnancy Massage, Pre-natal Massage, Post-natal Massage or Peri-natal Massage
(around or before and after birth massage)

Pregnancy is a time when a woman needs to feel her best.

A Pre-natal Massage allows time for the woman (not just mommy). During a Peri-natal Massage it is time for you to have your needs met. You should feel as comfortable as possible. I use a combination of pillows and bolsters to enhance your comfort. I even have a special cushion for breast-feeding mothers.

During your Pregnancy Massage it is time to have your needs met…
Are you thirsty, how about a glass of water?
Would you like a blanket or do you prefer to have your feet uncovered?
Which of our all natural scented oils would you prefer?
Or do you prefer unscented lotion?
What areas do you like to have massaged?
Do you feel you need to talk or do you prefer to just drift off with music?
Is there anything else you need to make you comfortable?

What you do every day effects how your baby develops. A Peri-natal Massage is a gentle, soothing way to support yourself that also supports your baby with no extra effort on your part. By taking time to care for and nurture yourself you share love with your baby. By being relaxed and peaceful you share the positive hormones associated with happiness and safety.

Pre-natal Massage can provide deep relaxation and improved sleep. With relaxation increased blood flows to the internal organs. This helps provide increased nutrients and oxygen to the womb where your baby is growing. During sleep is when our bodies grow and repair themselves best. Getting good sleep is very important; if you are well rested you can really be at your best.

Pregnancy Massage can help reduce the effects of stress such as headaches. As your baby grows more demands are placed upon your body and your emotions. Having time to let go of your daily concerns can help improve your self esteem and stamina. Helping your body feel good can not only make you feel better, but, it can help you feel better about yourself.

Pre-natal Massage can help make the third trimester more enjoyable, by reducing muscle tension especially in the low back. During the last trimester as you baby grows and becomes heavier and your ligaments stretch, your body can benefit from the relief of sore achy muscles in the neck, shoulders and low back. Pregnancy Massage can help improve circulation and reduce mild ankle swelling.

Post-natal Massage can be very helpful for reintegrating with your body. Post-natal is again a time of new challenges both physical and emotional. The demands of feeding, diaper changing, the lack of sleep, and ups and downs of emotions can reduce energy reserves. So why not boost yourself and get yourself the gift of a Post-natal Massage.
