"Emma is an incredible masseuse, and it has made a world of difference in my pregnancy. I've started going every 2-3 weeks as I reached the end of my second trimester/beginning of the third and it has helped alleviate a lot of the lower back pain, hip pain and tension in my upper back. Would highly recommend!" ~ Melissa - Seattle Pregnancy Massage client

Relaxation Has Never Been So ImportantLet's face it having a massage can seem like a luxury. How rejuvinating does it sound to spend an hour on a massage table having those aching muscles massaged? Can you feel the knots leaving and the relaxation taking over your being? You walk away feeling ready to take on the rest of your day.
While massage in your day to day life can feel like a wonderfully luxurious extra, while you are pregnant it should be seen as a part of your regular health care plan. You're not the only one who receives all the benefits of a great prenatal massage. Your baby receives them too. Prenatal massage boosts your circulation, sending increased blood flow and nutrients through the placenta to your baby. The stress hormones in your body which transfer to the baby through the placenta, are lowered and replaced with endorphins generated from that relaxation that you feel. Having the muscles and ligaments of your pelvis and lower back massaged, helps to lengthen and balance them, and create space for your baby to move around and find the ideal position for labor and birth. |
