Pregnancy and Post Natal Massage

​

Pregnancy is a time where expecting mums have huge physical demands on their bodies. Many postural shifts occur during pregnancy, which adds to muscular and tendon tension and sometimes pain. While it can be a magical time for a woman, once the baby arrives, the demands of carrying, feeding, and caring for the new baby also have a huge effect mentally, physically, and emotionally. Mums who are able to support their wellbeing with massage and self-care, often cope much better emotionally, sleep better and experience less pain and tension. Happy mum, happy baby. 

​

Pregnancy and postnatal massage offer benefits such as:

​

• Reduced muscular and tendon tension

• Reduced fluid retention and increased circulation

• Reduced back and neck pain and headaches

• Improved digestion by assisting relaxation

• Increased relaxation beneficial for both mum and baby

• Supportive suggestions for posture, sleep, and feeding to reduce strain on the body

• Improved production of breastmilk hormones by assisting relaxation

• Reduced common conditions such as sciatica, hip pain, tendonitis

• Reduced anxiety in anxious expecting mums

• Supports mood and thyroid and adrenal hormone production through relaxation
