Massage during pregnancy is completely safe and in fact encouraged. Mothers are placed in a position that is comfortable for mom and safe for the baby. The most common position is for the mom’s to lie on their sides. Pillows are used to keep the mothers body in an elevated position to maintain comfort and good circulation. Pregnancy massage is provided by using a variety of techniques such as Swedish massage, Breathing and Visualization Education and Self-care at home. The treatments can be altered to meet the needs of a woman experiencing higher risks or complications during their pregnancy.
