Loving Perinatal Massage
During the perinatal period there is a large emphasis put on nutrition, health care and medications, exercise and getting the nursery ready, but often the benefits of bodywork is underrated.
Massage gives the birth giver a chance for deep relaxation, which can be difficult with a wide variety of pregnancy discomforts. Prenatal massage can reduce back and joint pain, reduce swelling, stress and anxiety, and provide a new way to connect to the growing fetus. Postnatal massage has been shown to improve hormone regulation, reduce swelling, improve sleep and breastfeeding. It also supports integration of all the challenges that come with becoming a parent. Above all, massage just feels good.
This workshop provides you the tools to give a safe, relaxing and therapeutic experience. We will look at contraindications, propping, at look at the perinatal body using anatomy, physiology and Ayurveda, and give you a flow you can use when working in the pre and post natal period.

-and finally, have any questions answered about the technique and its potential benefit to a large number of health conditions.
