Prenatal /Postnatal Massage
The modalities offered by Body Sattva Therapies are adapted here to meet the bodily changes of this exciting but often debilitating time. The session is done with the client in a side-lying position for greater comfort and support. Aching muscles and joints are relieved. Excess metabolic waste is flushed from the body reducing tension, headaches and edema. Such complaints as varicose veins, insomnia and constipation benefit from this type of body work. The mother leaves the session feeling more relaxed and at ease, which has been shown to increase fetal nutrient uptake.
Bodywork is very beneficial during the postnatal period as well, where it helps to restore tone, promote circulation and ease pain and depression. Most importantly, therapeutic bodywork can restore a sense of connection to one's body and to nurture the new mother as she embarks on this aspect of her life.
If you have any questions about whether to receive bodywork during (or after) your pregnancy, please contact your healthcare provider.
Please contact Tara for details.
