Benefits of Pregnancy Massage

Stay healthy

Improved Circulation and Lymphatic Flow: Gentle massage stimulates blood flow, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to both the mother and baby. It also reduces swelling (edema), a common pregnancy complaint.

 

better sleep

Reduced Stress and Anxiety: Massage lowers levels of the stress hormone cortisol while increasing the feel-good hormones like serotonin and dopamine. This leads to improved emotional well-being and reduced anxiety, which contributes to better sleep.

 

more relaxed

Muscle Relief and Postural Support: As the body adjusts to carrying extra weight, muscles—especially in the lower back, hips, and legs—can become tense. Massage relieves this tension, easing pain and improving posture.

Hormonal Regulation: Massage can help balance pregnancy-related hormone fluctuations, stabilizing mood and contributing to more restful sleep.

Improved Sleep Quality: With reduced physical discomfort and lowered anxiety, it’s easier for pregnant women to fall and stay asleep.

 

requirements/precautions

 

Medical Clearance (if needed)

If the pregnancy is high-risk, or the mother has conditions like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, or a history of preterm labor, she should get approval from her healthcare provider before receiving massage therapy.

Appropriate Timing

First trimester: Some therapists avoid massaging during the first 16 weeks due to a slightly increased risk of miscarriage (although there’s no scientific proof linking massage to miscarriage).

Over 16 weeks are generally considered safe if done by a trained professional.
