Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy or Prenatal Massage is a therapeutic massage designed for expectant mothers throughout their pregnancy journey. Gentle, soothing techniques are used to alleviate pregnancy-related discomfort, reduce muscle tension and promote relaxation. With a focus on safety and comfort, this nurturing treatment aims to enhance overall wellbeing and create a serene environment for both mother and baby.
During pregnancy, your body goes through numerous changes and adaptations. Our pregnancy massages are carefully crafted to provide gentle, safe and effective relief from common pregnancy discomforts, as well as, enhancing overall wellbeing to help you to feel rejuvenated and empowered as you prepare for the arrival of your little one.
Available from after your dating scan (approx. 12 weeks gestation).
Postnatal Massage is offered to support the mother during this wonderful, challenging and tiring time. Swedish Massage techniques are used to relieve tension around the back and shoulder area which is common due to feeding, lifting and holding your baby.
After the strains of pregnancy and the massive effort of childbirth, the body has been through a lot and women need to heal both physically and emotionally. The increased blood flow to the muscles during the massage will help speed up healing from a natural, assisted or C-section birth. C-section scarring and stretch marks from pregnancy can also be massaged to break down the tissue surrounding the scar and naturally aid in speeding up recovery.
Our postnatal massage is tailored to each individual – you may want to focus on a relaxing head, scalp and shoulder massage or work the whole body…its up to you! We can offer a seated massage (especially useful if you are breastfeeding and/or if it is uncomfortable to lie on your front) or laying down.
Our pre & postnatal massage therapist Suzie, is a mum of 3, as well as a breast feeding support worker, so completely understands how every mum feels after giving birth.
Available after you have been signed off from your midwife and health visitor team (usually around the 6 week mark).
