PREGNANCY MASSAGE
SUPPORTING YOUR BODY THROUGH PREGNANCY
Pregnancy brings plenty of changes, and as your body adapts, you may notice new areas of tension, discomfort or fatigue.
At Source Therapy, pregnancy massage is adapted to your individual needs, helping to ease muscular tension, support relaxation and provide some welcome time to feel more comfortable in your body.
Whether you're experiencing tight shoulders, an aching back or simply looking for a little time to unwind, each treatment is planned around you and your stage of pregnancy.
HOW CAN PREGNANCY MASSAGE HELP?
As your pregnancy progresses, changes in posture, weight distribution and everyday movement can place different demands on your muscles and joints.
Pregnancy massage can help to:
Ease muscular tension
Provide temporary relief from everyday aches and discomfort.
Support a greater sense of comfort as your body changes.
Every pregnancy is different, so treatments are adapted to how you're feeling, with your comfort and wellbeing always the priority.
Pregnancy massage is available from the second trimester onwards.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Your appointment begins with a consultation to discuss your pregnancy, any areas of discomfort and what you'd like to get from your treatment.
Throughout your massage, we'll make adjustments to ensure you're comfortable and properly supported. This may include lying on your side with pillows or bolsters, rather than lying on your front.
Treatment focuses on areas of muscular tension and discomfort, using techniques and pressure adapted to your needs and stage of pregnancy. Whether you're experiencing tight shoulders, an aching back or tension around your hips, we'll tailor the treatment to the areas that need attention.
Where appropriate, Kinesiology Taping (K-Taping) may also be used to provide additional support or help manage certain areas of discomfort.
Your comfort is always the priority, and we'll check in throughout your appointment to make sure you're happy with the positioning and pressure.
IS PREGNANCY MASSAGE SUITABLE FOR ME?
Pregnancy massage at Source Therapy is available from the second trimester onwards, with each treatment adapted to your stage of pregnancy and individual needs.
Before your appointment, we'll discuss your medical history, how your pregnancy is progressing and any symptoms or concerns you may have.
While massage can be suitable during many uncomplicated pregnancies, certain medical conditions or pregnancy-related complications may mean treatment needs to be adapted, postponed or discussed with your midwife or healthcare professional first.
If you're unsure whether pregnancy massage is suitable for you, please get in touch before booking.
