How A Pregnancy Massage Could Help You

Sometimes it can seem like a long time waiting. Some women simply sail through pregnancy and others whilst healthy find that the increased weight that their bodies carry, brings increased aches, pains and tiredness. As long as there is no actual risk and upon the advice of the midwife or medical practitioner, it is the perfect time to book a pre-natal Massage. Manchester clients for this treatment can look forward to relaxing with an especially trained pregnancy massage therapist and being cossetted in a body-supporting pregnancy pillow for an hour.

The pregnancy massage Manchester Massage clients are able to enjoy is different to other types of massage offered at this therapy centre in Manchester, offering a treatment that is designed specifically to be soothing and comforting. It is tailored to the individual needs of the mother, taking into account each unique pregnancy experience, aiming to alleviate any of the symptoms which may occur – possibly lower back or shoulder pain, or restless leg syndrome. As the pregnancy develops the muscular imbalance can cause discomfort and pain in the back as the body assumes new postural changes to accommodate the weight of the bump.This massage will be customised to the expectant mother as every pregnancy is different. What you need at any time during the massage will be taken into account, your need to move or re-adjust, to sit up, or have a drink of water, and the full body massage pillow will support your bump as you lay on one side. Laying on the sideis the position most find the most comfortable bringing greatest physical comfort and is considered to be the optimum position for baby’s safety.

Wellbeing in all its forms

But a pre-natal massage helps the mother to be in more than one way.During pregnancy the changes in the body also bring about heightened emotions and the relaxation experienced during a pregnancy massage helps to support both emotionally and physically. This has been researched extensively  and results indicate it can reduce anxiety and boost levels of the hormones serotonin and dopamine, often referred to asthe “feel-good” or “wellbeing” chemicals produced by the brain.Endorphins block the perception of pain and relieve stress. By booking in for a pregnancy massage the client can look forward to a reduction in any stress and an overall improvement in their wellbeing during this special time.

You will want to feel sure that a pregnancy massage is safe.

Client safety and comfort is paramount in our concerns for any client and this is especially so with a mother to be. During a normal pregnancy – and if the client is experiencing no concerns with their pre-natal team and is in good health – then massage is usually safe. Not all therapists can give a pregnancy massage, they are trained in this area as an advanced course in their training, making it an area of specialisation. They followed accredited courses which are in turn recognised by insurers to recognise this level of expertise. They love to offer a pregnancy massage knowing that it gives physical and emotional support which in turn also helps the expectant mother in her preparations for birth.
