Pregnancy brings significant physical changes that can contribute to muscle tension and discomfort.
Pregnancy massage in Cronulla provides expectant mothers with a treatment adapted to their changing bodies and individual comfort.
What Is Pregnancy Massage?
Pregnancy massage is massage therapy modified to accommodate pregnancy.
Your therapist can adjust positioning, pressure, and techniques to your stage of pregnancy, comfort, and individual circumstances.
Your therapist should also discuss your pregnancy and relevant health information before treatment.
Common Areas of Tension During Pregnancy
As your body changes, you may notice muscle tension in your back, hips, shoulders, or legs.
However, every pregnancy is different.
Rather than assuming where you need a massage, your therapist will discuss how you're feeling and tailor treatment accordingly.
Comfort and Positioning
Comfort is particularly important during pregnancy massage.
Side-lying position and appropriate support with pillows or bolsters may be used as needed.
You can also modify pressure throughout the treatment.
When Should You Speak to Your Healthcare Provider?
Pregnancy massage is not appropriate in every situation.
If you have pregnancy complications, new or unexplained symptoms, or have been advised to restrict certain activities or treatments, discuss massage with your doctor, midwife, or other appropriate healthcare professional before booking.
