PREGNANCY MASSAGE
I am specially trained in the field of massage during pregnancy and postnatal care.
Pregnancy massage is designed to ease pregnancy-related aches and pains, and soothe tired muscles. Thus helping to;
Reduce strain
Relieve muscular tension, especially on the muscles of the lower back and shoulders
Increase joint flexibility
Reduce stress on
weight-bearing joints
Increase tone of the muscles that have become weakened and strained during pregnancy
Reduce fluid retention and swelling
Prepare the body for a more comfortable pregnancy assisting with body mechanics and movement during the structural change to the body and posture
Treatments are adapted to the stage of your pregnancy.
Depending on the stage of your pregnancy, massage can either be conducted on a massage couch or on a chair supported by cushions.
After the birth of your baby, Postnatal Pregnancy Massage can be very beneficial and plays an important role after
birth.
Post natal massage focuses on helping to restore the mother`s body to its pre-pregnancy condition. It relieves muscle tension and stress from everyday activities, especially new mothering duties.
