Benefits of Prenatal Massage Therapy 

  • Reduces stress and promotes relaxation
  • Relieves muscle spasms, cramps, and myofacial pain, especially in the back, neck, and hips
  • Increases blood and lymph circulation, increasing cellular nutrition and reducing edema
  • Reduces strain on weight-bearing joints and musculo-fascial structures
  • Develops the sensory awareness necessary to relax during 1st stage of labor, and to recruit appropriate muscles during the pushing phase

          ~  Provides a pregnant woman with the experience of loving, nurturing touch so that she may touch her own baby lovingly

~ Along with  portable table, I have a Body Support System, which allows mom to lay on her BELLY...something that most women would love to be able to do in late pregnancy.  This cushion system is designed for mom from 3 months along, up to as big as right before her due date, while relieving back and pelvic strain, and giving me full access, as the therapist, to the whole back and sacral area, maximizing massage benefit.
