Prenatal Massage (60-mins) is generally safe when performed by therapists trained in pregnancy care. We recommend clearance from your healthcare provider, especially in early or high-risk pregnancies. Therapists use modified techniques and positioning to protect mother and baby throughout the session.

During Prenatal Massage (60-mins) we primarily use side-lying positions with bolsters and cushions for support. For earlier pregnancies we may use a specially designed pregnancy table or seating. Comfort and safety guide every positioning choice throughout your treatment.

Certain conditions may rule out prenatal massage. Avoid treatment if you have preeclampsia, uncontrolled hypertension, deep vein thrombosis, placental complications, active bleeding, or infectious illness. Always disclose your medical history and consult your obstetrician before booking if you have concerns.

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing you can easily move in. You may prefer undergarments; therapists will professionally drape for modesty. We provide bolsters and pillows so you feel supported—no special clothing is required to enjoy Prenatal Massage (60-mins).

Many clients schedule Prenatal Massage (60-mins) weekly or every two weeks, depending on comfort level and pregnancy stage. Follow your provider’s guidance; therapists will recommend a frequency tailored to your symptoms, trimester, and overall health.
