Details.
Pregnancy and early stage postpartum massage therapy for people who are 13 or more weeks pregnant or within three months after giving birth. Sessions are primarily side-lying with support cushions, light to medium pressure and unhurried pacing. Therapeutic and restorative techniques are adapted to promote stability, fluid movement and relaxation. Unscented, nut-free oils are used. The treatment is designed to help ease back pain, pelvic girdle pain, hip or leg tension, swelling, anxiety, fatigue, restlessness and insomnia. It is not suitable before 13 weeks of pregnancy or when advised against by a healthcare provider. Prepare by hydrating, eating a light meal, wearing loose clothing, removing jewellery and completing the consultation form. After treatment, drink water, rest, move slowly, and allow time before standing if blood pressure drops.
