What are the benefits of prenatal massage?
Prenatal massage a safe modality for women in pregnancy to help reduce muscle fatigue, muscle cramping and lower back strain. A 60 minute prenatal massage helps with blood flow, increases circulation and promotes general well-being.
The skin, being the largest organ of the body, also benefits when therapeutic touch is combined with almond oil mixed with essential oils like lavender, geranium or neroli (all regarded as safe during pregnancy). Done consistently, prenatal massage can be a mindful check-in for a woman’s body wisdom in her pregnancy.
Prenatal massage strokes are the same type of therapeutic touch that is helpful when a woman is laboring. This type of massage can also build confidence for women learning that gentle infant massage strokes and skin-to-skin contact provide a powerful comfort measure for baby later on.
For women with specific conditions like sciatica or Pubic Symphysis, talking ahead of time to both the masseuse and one’s medical care provider is suggested for more specific muscular trigger points to address.
