Pregnancy massage
During pregnancy a woman's body undergoes many changes, some of them stressful and uncomfortable. Massage is a great way to reduce stress and promote general well-being. It helps the mother's body to eliminate waste products which combats fatigue and helps the mother feel more energetic.
By aiding circulation, massage eases the load on the mother's heart and helps to keep her blood pressure in check. It can also alleviates muscular discomforts like cramping, tightening, stiffness, tension as well as common discomforts like backaches, leg cramps, headaches, edema, and sore and swollen ankles and feet. Massage increases local and general blood circulation, which brings more oxygen and nutrients to the cells of both the mother and fetus. This means greater vitality and less fatigue for the mother and better nourishment for her baby. Massage helps to soothe and relax nervous tension, which helps the mother sleep more easily and more deeply and reduces anxiety. Incidentally, doctors all agree that a relaxed mother will have a happier, healthier pregnancy and possibly an easier childbirth experience, too.

Therapeutic massage can be suitable to aid relaxation or to treat many problems, including muscular pain, injuries, tension,stiffness and insomnia. Usually a full-body treatment, however the session can be tailored to the areas that need most work: often the shoulders, back or legs.
Therapeutic massage may also be a relaxing, stress relieving treatment and is suitable for people without specific problems. Each treatment session is preceded by a short consultation in order to tailor the massage to the client.
