During pregnancy, your body undergoes numerous changes. As your uterus expands to accommodate the growing baby, there is increased stress on your back, neck, shoulders, and abdominal muscles. Many expecting mothers often experience discomfort in their low back, legs, hips, swelling, and/or insomnia. Prenatal treatment offers a beneficial means to manage these changes and alleviate discomfort. Massage during pregnancy promotes a feeling of well-being by inducing relaxation.

A body cushion system is available to allow you to lie face-down (prone) and fully supported during the treatment. Lying on your stomach will allow for an effective massage to relieve a sore back.
