Benefits of Pregnancy Massage   

Pregnancy Massage can help women and their unborn babies in so many ways.   

Massage increases the blood and lymph circulation for both mom and baby which in turn reduces edema and swelling, raises metabolism and immune function and stretches the skin to decrease chances of stretch marks. Some moms find it increases flexibility and also boosts energy .   

Massage enhances your sense of well being by calming and appreciating your miraculous body.   

Don’t forget that it helps with aches, pains, and muscle spasms, especially in the joints effected by pregnancy such as hips, spine, and legs.   

Birth massage techniques have been proven to decreases pain awareness and can help with inducing labor in a mom and baby which is ready and improve the outlook of childbirth.

Swedish   

A Swedish massage is a very relaxing massage which consists of long, flowing strokes, kneading and friction on the more superficial muscles of the body. Swedish massage is a great “stress buster” and a good choice for your first massage experience.    

Deep Tissue   

This is a detailed deep massage perfect for after the birth of the baby.    

Trigger Point and Injury Massage  

A trigger point is a tight area within muscle tissue that causes pain in other parts of the body. A trigger point in the back, for example, may trigger pain in the neck. The neck, now acting as a satellite trigger point, may then cause pain in the head. The pain may be sharp and intense or a dull ache. Trigger points are caused by muscle overuse or injury, and because the aches are associated with moving parts, the pain is commonly mistaken for arthritis. Trigger point work is specifically designed to alleviate the source of the pain through cycles of isolated pressure and release. In this type of massage the recipient actively participates through deep breathing as well as identifying the exact location and intensity of the discomfort. The result of trigger point massage is the elimination of toxins in the muscles and the release of energizing endorphins. A significant decrease in pain is often found after just one treatment.

Emotion Code Session    

The Emotion Code is the simplest, easiest, and fastest method ever devised to find emotional baggage and release it, either from yourself or from someone else. Our emotional baggage consists of actual energies, the energies of intense emotional events that we’ve experienced that are still stuck in our physical bodies. These energies distort the normal energy field of the body, creating pain, malfunction, all manner of disease, and even cancer. In addition, these energies (trapped emotions) are the driving force behind PTSD, depression, anxiety, phobias and all manner of mental illnesses.    

Aromatherapy Massage   

Combines the benefits of Swedish massage with aromatherapy oil blends to promote balance for the body, mind, and spirit. Essential oils have a long tradition of providing a variety of therapeutic benefits for all the body’s systems.     

Reflexology  

Involves manipulation of specific reflex areas in the feet and hands that correspond to other parts of the body. Pressure is applied to the reflex zones to stimulate body organs and relieve areas of congestion. Reflexology works with the body’s energy flow to stimulate circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids. It is especially useful in stress-related imbalances.  

Infant Massage    

Massage is indicated for most newborns and may be Swedish-type massage, Craniosacral therapy, or energy work. It can be used to address various disorders such as colic, sucking problems, birth trauma, gastrointestinal problems, etc. Massage has been shown to hasten the growth of premature babies, shorten hospital stays and lower cortisol levels in infants under distress. Depending on your baby’s situation, you may be asked to obtain a release from your baby’s physician to allow consultation and treatment.
