Ease your aches and pains, looking after the two of you during this miraculous time.
Maternity Massage
Pregnancy puts enormous physical and emotional demands on the body. From hormonal changes to postural shifts, growing a baby affects every part of you — and massage can be a powerful way to find comfort, ease, and stillness during this time.
Our Maternity Massage is a deeply calming treatment that supports your body as it adapts, helping you stay relaxed, rebalanced and more connected to yourself as your pregnancy progresses.
How can Maternity Massage help?
This soothing, slow-paced treatment is tailored to your changing body and personal preferences. It can help:
- Relieve back, hip, neck and shoulder tension
- Reduce swelling and fluid retention
- Soothe leg cramps and muscular aches
- Encourage lymphatic drainage
- Ease anxiety and improve sleep
- Provide emotional grounding and calm
You’ll be fully supported with cushions, wedges and pillows — usually in a side-lying position — so you’re completely comfortable throughout. We’ll always talk through the areas you’d like us to focus on (and avoid), ensuring your session feels safe and exactly right for you.
What to expect
Expect long, flowing, gentle massage techniques designed to release tension, reduce discomfort, and leave you feeling lighter and more at ease. The treatment often finishes with a calming head and neck massage using Indian Head Massage techniques.
It’s not unusual to leave feeling relaxed, nurtured — and wonderfully ready for a nap.
