Pregnancy massage, also called prenatal massage, is a specialized type of therapeutic massage that supports the physical changes your body goes through during pregnancy. Unlike a standard massage, prenatal massage uses supportive positions, such as side-lying with pillows, along with adjusted pressure and pregnancy-safe techniques to improve comfort.
As your centre of gravity shifts, your muscles, joints, and ligaments handle more stress. Changes in posture can cause lower back and hip discomfort, while pressure around the pelvis can lead to sciatic-type symptoms. Hormonal changes can also make your ligaments more flexible. A trained prenatal massage therapist understands these changes and adjusts each session to help ease common pregnancy-related aches, muscle tension, and discomfort.
