Massage and Pregnancy
Massage during Pregnancy can be a magical moment. It emotionally and physically supports a woman during a time when her body is undergoing many changes bringing their share of excitment. The calming effect of massage helps reduce stress especially if this is the first baby.

 

 

 
Pregnancy and Massage a Magical Combination
 

 

From the third month onwards, we want to make your pregnancy a magical moment. Massage will help and support you through this stage by providing relaxation, help with aches and minor ailments and by boosting the feel good hormone that you create yourself (serotonin). This feel good hormones are passed on to the baby who in turn will benefit from your massage.

Reduce stress and anxiety How often

Beside helping with general fluid circulation in the body thus reduce oedema and swelling, massage will help reduce pain and aches and create a state or sheer relaxation which can make you feel like floating.

It is recommended to start after the first trimester. Ideally I would advise to come once a week for massage.

 

What to expect the first time?

The first time there is a comprehensive consultation to assess your needs and to check whether there is any contra-indication to massage. We would also liaise with your pre-natal care provider (midwife) because they will give advice on health issues.
