Massage has been proven to increase and improve circulation, metabolic processes, kidney function, joint range of motion and cellular reproduction and renewal for both mom and baby. Pregnancy massage is also an ideal way to encourage relaxation and decrease the stress load upon the ever changing pregnant body, thereby easing the transition into labor, best preparing us for that journey. Due to the long list of beneficial effects, massage is shown to generate a decrease in common pregnancy ailments such as pre-eclampsia and hypertension.
For all of these reasons, Massage Therapy and Healing Touch is highly encoraged and offered as a part of The Mothered Momma Services.
