Pregnancy is such a special time in a women’s life. A pregnant lady is growing a new life and preparing to enter into motherhood.

In our fast paced life many women complain they do not have enough time-out to enjoy their pregnancy.

The exceptional demands of pregnancy demands TIME OUT TO REST. Rest also enhances a mum-to-be’s connection with her baby.

Pregnancy massage is designed to relax and pamper ladies so that they feel rejuvenated, calm and special.

Babies love massage too. Ladies often report that their babies wake up and kick during the treatment. All doctors agree that a relaxed mother will have a happier and healthier pregnancy and possibly an easier childbirth.

As a pregnancy massage therapist I take pride that I am treating not just one person but two or more!

Pregnancy is a constant state of change. I love to reflect on my patient’s needs at each particular stage and tailor treatment accordingly.

Benefits of SPECIALISED PREGNANCY MASSAGE include:

1. RELAXATION – massage relieves anxiety and stress, which may have adverse impacts on the baby with signs of an elevated heart rate.
