If so, then you need to consider prenatal massage. Studies have shown that prenatal massages can do all of these, along with the typical benefits of professional massage therapy!
Prenatal Massages
Each session focuses on your special needs as your body goes through these changes of the child-bearing year—including pregnancy, birth, and post-delivery. Massage provides a nurturing touch to you, which also nurtures the life of your unborn child.

Your Safety Matters!
When it comes to receiving this very special and valuable kind of massage, it’s important to make sure that your therapist is professionally trained in prenatal massage and has the proper equipment. I received my ‘Pre- & Perinatal Massage Therapy Certification’ from Body Therapy Associates, the leading provider of this type of training and certification in the country. I also use a special ‘Side Lying Body Positioning System’, which is designed specifically to create ergonomically correct support for side lying and semi-reclining positions (the positions necessary for most proper prenatal massage).
Discuss with your doctor, or me, whether prenatal massage is right for you, particularly if you have a special condition, and as always, please contact me if you have any questions or concerns about what pregnancy massage is like, what to expect, or if it is right for you.
