Prenatal Massage, Labor Preparation, & Postpartum Healing
Massage therapy during pregnancy is a wonderful complementary choice for prenatal care and postpartum recovery. It is a healthy way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness.
In addition, massage for pregnant women reduces stress on weight-bearing joints, encourages blood and lymph circulation, helps to relax nervous tension -- which aids in better sleep -- and can help relieve depression or anxiety caused by hormonal changes.
For postpartum healing it balances spikes in hormones triggered after delivery and reduce stress of nursing a newborn with very little sleep. Ease the kinks, aches and pains of the birth process and restore the hips and pelvis and viscera.
