What is Prenatal massage?
Massage during pregnancy is essential in pre and post-natal care. A woman undergoes many physical changes during pregnancy that can lead to physical and emotional stress effectively addressed with therapeutic massage.
The mother's muscles are continually adapting to the spine's changing shape and weight distribution causing Low back pain, poor posture, fatigue, pregnancy headaches, dropped arches, calf cramping, and swollen hands and feet.
Prenatal massage helps by stimulating the soft tissues of the body to reduce the fluids that cause swollen joints. Prenatal massage therapy helps remove the tissue waste to reduce muscle aches and joint pain and can help alleviate backaches, leg cramps, and swelling that often accompany pregnancy
