prenatal + postpartum massage
nurture yourself and your growing little one with prenatal + postpartum massage.
as your body continues to shift and change, we’re here to support you on your pregnancy journey
Becoming a parent is an incredible experience, one that comes with its fair share of change. It’s helpful to find outlets that can naturally treat common symptoms that arise as your body continues to adjust as the baby grows.
As RMTs, we have been educated on how to safely provide massage therapy treatment throughout a pregnancy as well as when you shift into parenthood for postpartum self-care.
We utilize the oh-so-comfortable and sought after pregnancy pillows. This allows those who are expecting, to enjoy lying face down on the treatment table while remaining completely supported and safe to do so.
prenatal massage is your time to be taken care of
We know our pregnant clients are balancing the busy life they had even before becoming pregnant and now adjusting to all the planning and changes for the new beginning ahead. With the added stresses on the body can come a lot of to-do lists too. Massage will help ease the common symptoms of discomfort as the body compensates to house this incredible little person that you get to meet in the upcoming months. While also giving your busy mind a break, with an hour of stress free self-care that’s all about – you.
As your body transitions back from pregnancy, we’re here to support you too
With all the changes the body goes through leading up to the big moment of meeting your little person, whatever went down to get your baby into this world safely can mean you went through a lot – emotionally and physically.
Often times, postnatal care gets pushed aside to make it all about the newborn, and it is! But as the birther, you just went through a wild experience and the after effects on you body and mind are important for self-care too.
We’re here as a outlet to focus on making your body feel better, lift your mood and help put some much needed energy back in your body. So you can fill your physical and emotional tank and be more present and strong for yourself + family.

Because the body’s structures and tissues have to adjust quite a bit throughout a pregnancy and after, massage therapy helps to ease symptoms of common pregnancy strains, inflammation, compression issues and alignment compensations. It’s also helpful to find natural, drug free alternatives when dealing with headaches, anxiety + new and uncomfortable sensations.

Massage therapy is safe to receive at any point during your pregnancy. Your comfort and safety are the top priority, so your therapist will always make modifications to ensure you feel supported and comfortable throughout the session. Whether it’s adjusting your position or focusing on areas that need extra care, massage can be a wonderful way to relax and ease pregnancy-related discomfort.
We’re here to answer any questions or concerns you might have, so don’t hesitate to ask your RMT any and all questions you may have. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your comfort.

Depending on what is the most comfortable at different points in your pregnancy, we can utilize custom pregnancy pillows where you lie face down on the massage table, as you regularly would to receive massage treatment, with added support and space for the abdomen and breasts. Otherwise, we would have you in a side lying position with supportive pillowing, keeping you cozy and comfortable throughout.
We will always modify your position at any point of your massage to make sure you are feeling safe and relaxed throughout your time with us.

It’s a personal preference, though bi-weekly massages are a great way to continue assisting your body with adjusting to change, as you move through your pregnancy.
