How Does Pregnancy Massage Differ From Other Massage Types?
The techniques are similar to relaxation and swedish massage mainly, however when there are a few more aches and pains due to the baby , remedial techniques are useful to aid with the tension in the areas that are under temporary load.
In the third trimester a hormone called relaxin is produced this is designed to make all the ligaments softer to prepare for birth. In some ladies this trimester is a godsend as pre existing pains have temporary relief with the production of this new hormone, for other ladies it begins to stir up new pain and with this comes instability especially through the pelvic girdle.

What Should I Expect When I Arrive For My Pregnancy Massage?
You will be asked in your intake form when you make your online appointment to bring a letter from you Doctor. This will be a clearance form to ensure you have no contraindications for massage during your pregnancy. We will take this and have you fill in some history forms and sign a consent form.
Then we will discuss your areas of concern and your goals for your massage outcomes. This maybe to relax and have some tight sore muscles worked on.
We get you set up on the table first to make sure your are comfortable, then ask you to derobe once we have left the room. Once you are back on the table we will come in and begin. Checking the pressure is right and that you are comfortable.
