Massage During Pregnancy & Postpartum
Pregnancy and postpartum periods involve profound physical changes — weight shifts, hormonal fluctuations, tissue stretching, and structural realignment. Clinical massage can address the pain, tension, and dysfunction that often accompany these changes.
Our pregnancy and postpartum massages are delivered with clinical precision, taking into account your stage of pregnancy or recovery, any complications, and your specific discomforts.
Pregnancy Massage Benefits
- Lower back pain relief — support for the increased lumbar curvature from weight gain
- Hip and pelvic tension — relief from the ligament laxity and shifting that occurs during pregnancy
- Improved circulation and swelling reduction — enhanced blood and lymph flow support
- Enhanced relaxation and stress relief — clinical massage supports mental health during pregnancy
Postpartum Recovery Support
Recovery after childbirth is a critical period. Your body has undergone significant trauma — whether vaginal birth or cesarean section — and requires precise support for optimal healing.
- C-section scar tissue mobilization — gentle tissue work to prevent adhesions and restore mobility
- Diastasis recti support — assistance with abdominal muscle re-engagement and healing
- Postpartum pelvic and hip realignment — structural support as your body returns to pre-pregnancy positioning
- Pain relief and functional restoration — support for the demands of caring for a newborn
Safety & Positioning
We use specialized techniques for pregnancy massage — positioning you safely, avoiding pressure on the abdomen, and adjusting our approach based on your trimester and any complications. For postpartum work, we respect healing timelines and any surgical sites.
Your Treatment Plan
We'll discuss your pregnancy or postpartum stage, any pain or complications, and develop a customized plan:
- Baseline assessment and goal setting
- Session-by-session progress notes and adjustments
- Coordination with your OB/GYN if needed
