Prenatal Massage Therapy 

Nurturing support for you and your growing baby.

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it can also bring physical discomfort, emotional changes, and tiredness.

Our Prenatal Massage is a gentle, tailored treatment designed to support you during this special time, offering much-needed relief, relaxation, and a sense of calm connection with your changing body.

Using safe, specialised techniques, this massage focuses on areas that often feel the strain during pregnancy, such as the lower back, hips, legs, and shoulders. Whether you’re experiencing tension, swelling, fatigue or need a moment to unwind, prenatal massage helps ease discomfort and encourages deeper rest.

All sessions are conducted with your comfort and safety as our top priority. Cushions, positioning, and pressure are carefully adjusted to suit your stage of pregnancy, ensuring you feel supported and at ease throughout.

Please note: We recommend avoiding pregnancy massage during the first trimester unless you have received explicit clearance from your healthcare provider.

Second Trimester (Weeks 13–27)

The second trimester is often the most comfortable stage of pregnancy, making it an ideal time to start regular prenatal massage. As your body changes, massage helps ease back pain, reduce swelling, improve circulation, and promote deep relaxation.

Third Trimester (Weeks 28–40+)

The third trimester brings rapid changes and added strain on the body, making regular massage a welcome support. Prenatal massage at this stage helps alleviate lower back and pelvic discomfort, reduce swelling, improve sleep quality, and soothe the nervous system. It’s a gentle way to prepare both body and mind for birth.

Postnatal Massage

Postnatal massage is designed to support recovery after childbirth by easing muscle tension, reducing swelling, and promoting hormonal balance. It helps restore core function, relieve back and shoulder strain from feeding and lifting, and provides much-needed relaxation during the early weeks of motherhood.

  • Reduces swelling and fluid retention
    Encourages healthy circulation and lymphatic flow, helping to reduce puffiness in the legs, feet, and hands.

    Gentle techniques help relieve everyday aches, particularly in the hips and lower limbs.

  • Promotes better sleep and relaxation
    Encourages deeper rest by calming the nervous system and soothing both body and mind.
