Massage during pregnancy
More and more women are finding that a weekly or monthly massage
during pregnancy helps to reduce stress and promote relaxation
provides emotional support.

(especially for those women who are going through the experience
alone); relieves muscle spasms, cramps and general aches and pains;
increases circulation and thus reduces the possibility of varicose veins
and swelling in the feet and legs; helps with digestion and reduces the
likelihood of stretch marks.

Pregnant clients report that their massage sessions leave them feeling
relaxed and comfortable, and with increased self-confidence and an
enhanced body image.

However, massage during pregnancy should be avoided by women
with placental dysfunctions, pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes,
toxaemia or threatened miscarriage.

If in any doubt at all, have a chat with your doctor before booking an
appointment with a therapist.
