With hundreds of muscles, ligaments, tendons and trigger points, our bodies are miraculous! When we are growing a human being our bodies become even more taxed - and equally more amazing. Massage can relieve many of the strains and pulls that occur during our normal daily routines, yet during pregnancy these strains and pulls can feel different and confusing. Massage is proven to relieve many of these and learned stretches can be used regularly to ease day to day discomforts.
Certain trigger points have been said to promote uterine activity. Although not scientifically proven and still being debated, these physical body points will not be stimulated until recommended by your Midwife or OB/GYN. We can discuss the uses of these points during our prenatal visits.
Massage is valuable to all, and is available to your birth partner at an additional cost if you desire. This service can occur in your home to facilitate relaxation and comfort.
