Pamper Yourself with Prenatal Massage
Pregnancy is a time of wonder and constant change. Unfortunately, physical changes are often accompanied by aches and pains as your body changes to accommodate your growing baby. The good news is that you don't have to suffer through a sore back, stiff legs, and swollen feet! You and your baby benefit when you take time to relax and renew with prenatal massage.
What is prenatal massage?
Prenatal massage uses light strokes to increase endorphin production, relieving pain without the use of medication. It reduces muscle tension and pain caused by changes in a pregnant woman’s body. It relaxes the nervous system making it easier to sleep and increases the mother’s sense of well-being.
Prenatal massage helps expectant mothers with:
Back and neck pain
Hip pain and sciatica
Sore feet and legs
Edema or swelling of the legs and feet
Headaches
Pregnancy-related insomnia
