What is a Prenatal Massage?

Prenatal massage is a gentle and therapeutic bodywork technique designed specifically for mom-to-be, to support them throughout their pregnancy. Our trained therapists use safe and soothing methods to address the unique needs and concerns of pregnant women:  releasing tension from sore hips and lower back, soothing tired swollen feet and ankles, and releasing pressure from the head and neck. By focusing on specific areas of tension and discomfort, prenatal massage helps alleviate the physical and emotional challenges that can arise during pregnancy.

What are the Benefits of a Prenatal Massage?


  • Pain Relief: As the body undergoes significant changes during pregnancy, it can lead to discomfort, particularly in the lower back, hips, and legs. Prenatal massage targets these areas, providing relief from muscle tension and reducing pregnancy-related aches and pains.
  • ​Stress Reduction: Pregnancy can be a time of mixed emotions and heightened stress levels. Prenatal massage promotes relaxation, lowers cortisol levels, and encourages the release of endorphins, fostering a sense of calm and emotional well-being which is best for the growing baby and for Mom.
  • Improved Sleep: Many expectant mothers experience difficulty sleeping due to hormonal changes and physical discomfort. Prenatal massage can enhance sleep quality by soothing the nervous system, relieving tension and discomfort and promoting better rest.
  • Reduction of Swelling: Swelling, especially in the legs and feet, is a common concern during pregnancy. Prenatal massage techniques aid in reducing fluid retention and increasing circulation, which can alleviate swelling.
  • Headache Relief: Pregnancy hormones and stress can trigger headaches. Prenatal massage can help ease tension in the neck, shoulders, and head, reducing the frequency and intensity of headaches.
