Pregnancy Massage

Service Description

Pregnancy Massage – Restore, Soothe & Support Restore and refresh with this deeply relaxing pregnancy massage, designed to ease the tensions and discomfort that naturally arise as your body changes. Using safe, expertly blended aromatherapy oils, this treatment helps soothe aches and pains and is particularly beneficial for back discomfort, muscular tension, water retention, nerve compression, digestive issues, and overall relaxation. Pregnancy Massage offers enormous benefits—not only for the mother, but for the unborn baby too. It provides emotional and physical support at a time when the body is undergoing significant change, helping to prepare both body and mind for birth. Although pregnancy is a beautiful journey, the physical demands can place extra pressure on joints, ligaments, and internal organs, often leading to discomfort. There is extensive evidence supporting the benefits of pregnancy massage in relieving many of these common symptoms, helping women feel more comfortable, balanced, and calm throughout their pregnancy. Massage also reduces stress levels by triggering the body’s natural relaxation response. Research shows that the ‘feel-good’ endorphins released during massage are passed on to the baby—many therapists even notice gentle kicks or movement as the baby responds to the soothing treatment. Regular massage during pregnancy helps mothers become more in tune with their bodies. This increased awareness can aid relaxation during labour, often resulting in shorter, easier births, less pain, and fewer postnatal complications. It may also support breastfeeding success through increased prolactin levels and healthy mammary development.
