Recent reports show that the average American woman can expect to bear two children in her lifetime. Whether this number is more or less for you, we recognize this as a very special life event. Today women know the value of excellent prenatal care and seek out the best for themselves and the baby growing within them. Massage therapy has grown to be an effective piece of that total care package. It’s called Complimentary Treatment because it blends beautifully with your medical care.

Pregnancy is a time of great change physically, mentally and emotionally.  Our bodies become heavy with not just the baby but also increased body fluids, 40% more blood and the extra body-fat cells that accumulate during pregnancy.

During pregnancy extra hormones are being produced to support the pregnancy and some of these can affect you emotionally.  The hormone Relaxin works to loosen the ligaments of the joints in preparation of childbrith thereby leaving the muscles surrounding the joint to work overtime stabilizing the body.

It’s all quite exhausting, but most women’s schedules do not allow for the extra needed rest.  Fatigue begins to build and with that stress sets in.  This is where Pre-natal Massage comes in.

Massage…

• relieves the pain in the muscles and joints, increasing flexibility and ease of movement.
• reduces swelling by gently moving fluids back into circulation where they can be eliminated
• induces relaxation which stimulates the body’s natural functions allowing for better intestinal flow.  This decreases constipation and gas, often relieves back pain, headaches and other maladies associated with a build-up of metabolic waste products
• dissipates anxiety and stress through its nurturing touch which in turn improves sleep.  Mom gains a more positive sense of her body and generally feels revived.

As a result of conception your body will be undergoing profound and dramatic changes. Prenatal massage focuses on the special needs of the childbearing year – pregnancy, childbirth and then post-partum. You can receive massage during any trimester of your pregnancy right up to the time you begin your labor. Of course, aftet your baby arrives massage will help you recover from the previous nine months while also providing you with some precious relaxation time and serenity.
