You must be in your second trimester to safely receive a prenatal massage. Prenatal or pregnancy massage focuses on addressing the special needs of expecting women. I use a specially-designed massage bolster, to support a face-down position that flattens the lower back, relieving pressure on that tender area, without putting pressure on the baby bump.

This massage begins with a full body dry-brushing to gently stimulate the lymphatic system and exfoliate the skin to better absorb the deep moisturizing body butter. Dry brushing is followed by a light to medium pressure Swedish massage, which aids circulation, relaxation and recovery for sore muscles. This massage is a great choice for those who don't like deep work and who want a little skin care with their massage. Choose from Cocoa Butter and Shea or a Eucalyptus scented Aloe and Shea Butter.
