FAQ’s
FAQ’s
Is Pregnancy massage safe for my baby?
ABSOLUTELY. I’m a fully qualified Remedial Massage therapist educated in women’s health and pregnancy massage. I’ve got 11 years experience as a health professional and know how to keep your baby and you! Safe!
The biggest thing is communication between the client and therapist to know that everything feels okay and you are comfortable/feel sturdy on the table. For extra precautions you can also clarify with your obstetrician before booking to make sure you are cleared to receive a treatment.
What do I need to bring?
A pillow to help with your comfort on the table and a mindset for release/relaxation.
Can I lie on my back?
Yes - you definitely can. In this position it is only recommended for approximately 5-7 minutes at the end of the massage for neck release. Again communication is key here - if the baby was to become unsettled or wriggle too much, causing you concern we just move positions. (I’ve done 100’s of pregnancy massages and never had any issues).
How does pregnancy massage work?
You lay on your side for most of it, supported by pillows, towels and the leg bolster. I complete your full body from head to toe each side and finish with neck and head massage on your back - permitting this is a comfy position for you.
