A pregnancy massage - also known as a prenatal massage - is a massage or hand-on treatment done during pregnancy. There are different types of massages and are similar to regular massages but are more concentrated on the well-being of the mother and child. They typically last an hour and can be adapted to each individual depending on the mother's needs. You usually lie on your side but massage therapists can also use a massage table to increase comfort.
What are the benefits of pregnancy massage?
There are several benefits of getting a pregnancy massage for expectant mothers and their babies. It feels good, is excellent in promoting relaxation and bonding, soothes nerves, and relieves strained back and tired muscles.
Pain relief
Pregnancy can produce muscular discomforts such as leg cramps, muscle stiffness, tension and knots. A massage improves circulation and stimulates blood flow to these areas, easing discomfort and pain.
A tight buttock muscle can cause sciatic pain during pregnancy. A massage can help relax this muscle and relieve the pain caused by the pinched nerve.
Reduces swelling
Extra pressure your uterus places on your legs can lead to swelling in your feet and ankles. Massage can improve circulation and lymph flow to the affected areas, helping to reduce swelling.
Improved Sleep
A massage may aid in falling asleep and reduce insomnia. You can fall asleep faster and sleep for more extended periods. This could be due to the serotonin produced during the massage, which in turn produces melatonin, which helps us fall asleep.
Reduced stress and anxiety
Pregnancy is stressful, so a massage is a great way to relieve this stress and tension. It can relax and ease anxieties and worries about the pregnancy. Feeling good is essential and is great for your mental health, which can benefit you and the baby and increase emotional endurance.
Baby Massage
We offer Baby Massage in some of our MamaFit classes, as its own class or as 1:1 sessions.
Baby massage is a loving, nurturing touch. Some of the most intimate and deeply communicative moments between a parent and their baby are often spent in utter silence as they stroke a back, smooth a belly or run a finger under the arch of a tender baby foot.
There is no substitute for a parent’s loving touch. Through touch, babies first learn the comfort and security of loving and of being loved.
Numerous studies have found that massage plays a significant role in promoting the proper growth and healthy development of infants. Physically, massage stimulates the nerves, increases blood flow and strengthens the immune system.
It can relieve a host of childhood complaints from colic to constipation. A daily rubdown on a baby’s belly, for example, helps work out gas and regulates digestion. Massaging the chest may ease congestion. Gently stroking an infant’s face can improve her ability to suck. Most of all, massage is good for parent-child bonding.
- Some of the benefits include:
- Relieves Wind & constipation
