Pregnancy Support Pillow
Prenatal Massage therapy with our belly-down or side-lying body pillow allows the expecting mom to receive safe massage sessions throughout all trimesters.
The pillow supports the body and womb in all of its stages. As a result, it relieves pressure on the neck, breasts, abdomen, and lower back. Therefore, the massage therapist can treat the upper and lower back hamstrings and calves.
Belly-Down
Our belly-down body support pillow allows the mom-to-be to lie face down for the whole session if she wishes to. Most people prefer this position because it’s more comfortable.
Prenatal Massage Therapy during your Pregnancy
You can begin massage therapy at any point during your pregnancy—first, second or third trimester. However, we recommend regular treatments to help ease discomfort. Massage Therapy feels great to receive, and while you are pregnant, it should be a part of your regular health care routine.
Mother and Baby
The mom-to-be is not the only one who receives all the benefits of a great prenatal massage therapy session; her baby gets those benefits too. Prenatal massage boosts circulation, sending increased blood flow and nutrients through the placenta to her baby. The stress hormones in the mom’s body, which transfer to the baby through the placenta, are lowered and replaced with endorphins caused by that relaxation that you feel. Having the muscles and ligaments of the pelvis and lower back massaged helps to lengthen and restore them and create space for the baby to move around and find the ideal position for labor and birth.
