2. Less Swelling

• As the uterus expands it reduces circulation and indicates pressure on the main blood vessels. The right techniques can stimulate soft tissues to reduce edema, most commonly known as fluid retention.

2. Relieve Sciatica

• As your pregnancy continues to grow it rests heavier and heavier on the pelvic floor and lower back muscles. This pressure causes the sciatic nerve pain that so many women experience, along with swelling of the legs. Massage therapy can reduce inflammation  of the nerve by releasing tension.

3. Keep Hormones Leveled

• Whether you are pregnant or not, it has been proven that massage lowers the production of the “negative” hormones that cause stress. When you’re pregnant you will experience a high increase in all your hormones. Massage can help keep everything balanced. This will help balance out mood swings and the risk of low birth weight or delivery complications.

4. Keep Your Baby Safe

• As weight shifts to the center of your body, discomfort occurs and your muscles tighten, the baby can be positioned inappropriately. Prenatal massages will help soothe your muscles and reposition your body to ensure that your baby is always protected.
