Frequently Asked Questions

Is prenatal massage safe and when can I start?

Prenatal massage is completely safe when performed by certified therapists trained in pregnancy techniques. Most providers recommend starting in the second trimester (after 12-14 weeks) once the risk of miscarriage decreases. We use specialized cushioning and side-lying positions designed for pregnancy safety and comfort throughout your second and third trimesters.

What pregnancy discomforts can massage actually help?

Prenatal massage effectively addresses lower back pain, sciatic nerve pain, hip discomfort, leg cramps, swollen ankles and feet, upper back tension, headaches, and pregnancy-related anxiety. Our certified therapists use techniques specifically designed to relieve these common pregnancy challenges while supporting your overall wellbeing and sleep quality.

How is prenatal massage different from regular massage?

Prenatal massage uses specialized positioning (side-lying with supportive cushions), avoids deep abdominal work, uses gentler pressure on certain areas, and avoids specific pressure points contraindicated during pregnancy. Our therapists are trained in pregnancy anatomy and know exactly which techniques are safe and effective for expecting mothers versus standard massage approaches.

Will prenatal massage harm my baby?

No—when performed by certified prenatal massage therapists, it's completely safe for your baby. The techniques we use are specifically designed to benefit both mother and baby. In fact, reducing your stress hormones through massage creates a healthier environment for your baby. We avoid any techniques or positions that could compromise pregnancy safety.

How often should I get prenatal massage?

Frequency depends on your comfort and budget, but we typically recommend every 2-4 weeks during second trimester, increasing to weekly during the third trimester as discomfort intensifies. Many mothers find regular sessions significantly improve their pregnancy experience, sleep quality, and overall wellbeing. Some insurance plans cover prenatal massage—check your benefits.
