Prenatal & Postnatal Massage
Prenatal Massage Therapy
Every expecting mother deserves a stress releaser to not only relax but also to help them eliminate unwanted aches and pains of their changing bodies.
Expect our therapists to use their anatomy knowledge of the pregnant body and tailor each massage to you in order to get the greatest results. The expectant mother will be supported by side line and/or face-down pillows designed to accommodate a pregnant body while our therapists work on your trigger points, apply gentle acupressure, ligament release, active stretching to help mitigate or eliminate pain and physical stress from pregnancy.
