Pregnancy massage : A moment of relaxation for your well-being

A massage for pregnant women is a gentle interlude. It is specially designed to meet your needs throughout your pregnancy. During this unique period of your life, your body undergoes changes that can cause muscle tension and discomfort. A therapeutic massage, dedicated to pregnant women, will bring you deep relaxation and a sense of well-being, while taking care of your body.

 

Benefits of massage therapy for pregnant women:

  1. Pain relief: Our massages help soothe back pain, muscle tension and joint pain. So you can enjoy your pregnancy with complete peace of mind.
  2. Stress relief: We know how stressful this can be. Our treatments are designed to give you a moment’s peace, reducing anxiety and promoting a sense of well-being.
  3. Improved circulation: Our massage therapists will help you improve circulation. This will reduce the feeling of swelling and make you more comfortable.
  4. Improved sleep: By helping you relax deeply, our therapeutic massages promote restful sleep so you feel rested and invigorated.

 

Techniques used by our massage therapists:

  • Comfortable positioning: Using specially adapted cushions, our massage therapists massage you safely and comfortably. Massage is often performed in a lateral position, or with a cushion that allows you to be massaged in a prone position, without putting pressure on your stomach.
  • Gentle, adapted pressure: We use light to moderate pressure, adapted to your condition. So you can enjoy a moment of relaxation in complete safety.
  • Targeted areas: Our treatments focus on the areas that need it most. For example, the back, hips, legs and neck, to relieve tension and offer you a real moment of well-being.

 

Precautions to take before your massage therapy session :

  • Medical consultation: Before starting your sessions, make sure you have consulted your doctor for professional advice.
  • Qualified professionals: Our massage therapists are specially trained in prenatal massage, so you’ll be in good hands throughout your pregnancy.
  • Beware of pressure points: We take care to avoid specific areas to ensure your safety and prevent unwanted contractions.

 

Duration and frequency of prenatal massages

Prenatal massage sessions last between 30 and 90 minutes. You can choose the frequency that suits you best, but we generally recommend one or two sessions a month for ongoing relaxation and lasting well-being.

Take care of yourself and your baby by entrusting us with these gentle moments. If you have any questions or would like to find out more, please don’t hesitate to contact us! We’ll be delighted to accompany you on this wonderful adventure.
