Frequently Asked Questions
Unsure about the benefits of Pregnancy Massage or Reflexology? View our Frequently asked questions below or contact us on 07802517366.
What to Expect From Your Pregnancy Massage Appointment
Your first pregnancy massage or reflexology appointment with us will normally involve a brief discussion about the symptoms you are experiencing and what you are hoping to achieve from the appointment. Our specialist women’s health therapists will then use the information you have provided to make an assessment and decide what they can safely help you with. If you are hoping to have a relaxing pregnancy massage, rather than one to alleviate any symptoms, this is also something that can be provided as part of our pregnancy massage service.
Once the initial assessment and discussion has taken place, our specialist women’s health therapists will begin the pregnancy massage treatment. At this point, it would be helpful if you were wearing clothes that could either be easily removed or pulled up to access the areas of your body that you are struggling with.
If you do not feel comfortable with revealing particular areas of your body, please don’t hesitate to communicate this to our therapists, and they will do their best to find a solution. What’s more, if you find yourself feeling uncomfortable in certain massage positions, let us know and we will change things up. We can use a tailor made pregnancy pillow to allow a forward facing massage if required.
Can I Lay on My Stomach For a Massage While Pregnant?
We also have tailor made pregnancy pillows on hand, if the stomach lying position is deemed to be the most appropriate option. The pregnancy pillow is designed to provide support to both the mother and baby.
Is it Safe to Get a Massage When You are Pregnant?
If you do want to have a pregnancy massage or physio in your pregnancy, we would recommend choosing a service that is provided by specialist women’ health physiotherapists and/or our specialist massage therapists.. This is because they will have the expert knowledge and training to know how to safely and effectively provide therapy to pregnant women. Whilst an everyday massage therapist might be good at releasing some tension in your shoulders, they may not be aware of the safest positions or techniques to use on pregnant women.
