Friday finished beautifully 🥰 with my lovely Pregnancy Yoga client, popping in for an hour of nurturing, restorative massage with me! 🙋♀️🫶
She floated off, leaving me feeling delighted ✨️
🍃A prenatal massage is more than just a treat—it's therapeutic!
The Top Benefits:
✨ Relief from Aches & Pains
* Targeted Pain Relief: Significantly reduces lower back, hip, and joint pain caused by shifting posture and extra weight.
* Sciatica Soother: Helps ease pressure on the sciatic nerve.
😴 Better Sleep Quality
* Reduces physical discomfort that keeps you awake.
* Promotes deep relaxation to help combat pregnancy-related insomnia.
💧 Decreased Swelling (Edema)
* Boosts circulation and lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce fluid retention in swollen ankles and feet.
🧘♀️ Mood & Stress Management
* Calming Effect: Lowers stress hormones (like cortisol) and boosts feel-good hormones (like serotonin).
* Helps reduce anxiety and improve overall mood stability.
🤱 May Aid Labor Preparation
* Some studies suggest regular massage may contribute to a shorter and less painful labor experience by maintaining muscle tone and reducing general stress.
⚠️ Important Safety Tip:
Always choose a massage therapist who is certified and specifically trained in prenatal massage! Consult your healthcare provider before booking, especially if you have a high-risk pregnancy.
