Mama & Me (Pregnancy Massage)

Pregnancy is a beautiful and transformative journey, a time when you and your baby are deeply connected. While your body is working hard to create life, it’s also undergoing immense changes that can bring discomfort. Our Mama & Me Pregnancy Massage is a targeted, therapeutic experience, designed to nurture both you and your baby, helping you find comfort, connection, and peace during this special time.

Your body deserves extra care as it supports your growing baby. This massage is specifically designed to address the unique physical and emotional needs of a mum-to-be. Our therapists have a deep understanding of the complex biomechanical changes of pregnancy, allowing us to expertly manage pelvic girdle pain, sciatica, and muscle tension in the mid-back region commonly caused by the shift in the centre of gravity and postural changes.

We gently release tension in the lower back, hips, and shoulders, which are often strained by your changing posture.
Targeted techniques help improve circulation and reduce fluid retention and swelling in your legs and feet.
By calming your nervous system, the massage helps you relax deeply, promoting the restorative sleep you and your baby need.

When you are calm and relaxed, your body releases positive hormones that your baby experiences too. This nurturing touch not only benefits you but also creates a peaceful environment for your baby to grow and thrive, strengthening the beautiful bond between you.

Our therapists are specifically trained in prenatal massage. We use a supportive pregnancy pillow system to ensure you are safely and comfortably positioned (side-lying or custom prone position), allowing you to relax fully without putting any pressure on your belly. We use only safe, gentle techniques and natural oils to provide a truly nurturing experience.

Trimester Policy: For the safety of the mother and baby, we do not perform pregnancy massage during the First Trimester (weeks 1-12). We recommend booking your session starting from the Second Trimester, week 13 onwards.

While pregnancy massage is usually safe and incredibly beneficial, there are certain medical conditions and circumstances where it is contraindicated. For the safety of both you and your baby, it is essential to be aware of these. Your therapist will always conduct a thorough consultation to ensure that a massage is safe for you.

Conditions that at contraindicated, where we cannot proceed with a massage:

• High-Risk Pregnancy – this includes a diagnosis of preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, or gestational diabetes.
• Severe Morning Sickness – massage can worsen these symptoms due to changes in pressure and certain aromas.
• Bleeding or Spotting – any unexplained vaginal bleeding is an immediate reason to postpone a massage.
• Fever or Contagious Illness – massage is not recommended as it can raise your body temperature and put unnecessary stress on your body.
• Deep Vein Thrombosis – a critical contraindication, as massage can dislodge a blood clot.
• Placenta Previa or Abruptio – these conditions pose a direct risk to your pregnancy.

Preterm Labour – a massage could stimulate contractions.

It is a strict requirement for your safety that you consult with your doctor, midwife, or obstetrician before booking your first pregnancy massage with us. This ensures that any unique factors in your health history are considered, facilitating safe liaison between your medical team and our therapists. We want you to relax and enjoy your treatment with complete peace of mind.

MASSAGE PRESSURE LEVEL: Very light to gentle pressure, deep pressure is avoided, especially on the legs and specific reflex points.

It’s perfectly normal to have questions about massage during this special time. We’ve answered the most important ones to give you complete peace of mind.
