Prenatal Massage: Safe, Soothing Relief for Moms-to-Be

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it can also come with physical discomforts—lower back pain, swollen legs, sore hips, and stress. At AHC Wellness Clinic, our Prenatal Massage Therapy is designed to help expectant mothers relax and feel supported throughout their pregnancy.

What Is Prenatal Massage?

Prenatal massage is a gentle, safe form of massage specifically adapted to the needs of pregnant women. It focuses on reducing physical stress and improving circulation while supporting the body’s natural changes during pregnancy.

Benefits of Prenatal Massage:

Eases lower back, hip, and pelvic pain
Reduces swelling in feet and legs
Relieves neck and shoulder tension
Improves sleep quality
Enhances mood and reduces anxiety
Boosts circulation and lymphatic drainage

Our licensed Registered Massage Therapists (RMTs) use special cushions and side-lying techniques to ensure your comfort and safety at all stages of pregnancy.

Is Prenatal Massage Safe?

Yes—when performed by trained professionals, prenatal massage is completely safe. Our team takes extra precautions and always customizes the session based on your trimester and specific symptoms. We recommend getting clearance from your OB/GYN before your first massage session, especially if you have a high-risk pregnancy.

When Should You Start?

Many women start prenatal massage in the second trimester and continue regularly into the third. The frequency depends on your body’s needs and comfort levels.

Support Your Pregnancy Naturally

If you're experiencing discomfort, stress, or just need a relaxing break, a prenatal massage can be an excellent way to support both your physical and emotional well-being during this special time.
