Pregnancy massage is completely safe from the moment of conception right up until birth. It is important to let your therapist know what stage of pregnancy you are at so they can make sure you are comfortable and safe and tailor the treatment to assist with what symptoms you might be feeling.

Overall, pregnancy massage is a great way to calm your mind and relax your body in this time of immense change. It is a beautiful way to connect with your Bub and support the many structural changes your body experiences. Pregnancy massage can be beneficial for different reasons at different stages of pregnancy. In early stages it helps combat some of the symptoms which come with the first trimester such as nausea, fatigue and headaches. As you progress through pregnancy and into your second and third trimester, massage supports the structural changes which occur in the body that allow Bub to grow and develop as well as hormonal changes and emotional well-being. In the third trimester, pregnancy massage is all about preparing for birth and labour by loosening muscles and getting you into a more relaxed state.

It is safe to have pregnancy massage regularly. Recommendation on how close your treatments should be from a therapeutic point of view will be discussed by your therapist and will depend on your presenting conditions, symptoms and treatment plan. It is generally recommended to have a treatment once a month and more often if you are experiencing pain or discomfort or are nearing the end of pregnancy where we begin to prepare your body for birth.

From second trimester or if you are uncomfortable laying flat, we use side lying position for our treatments. This position is recommended as the safest position by Pregnancy Massage Australia. We also use lush body pillows to help support your body and belly to help ensure complete comfort.
