Advantages of Prenatal Massage in Los Angeles

Being able to conceive and develop new life is one of the beautiful things that can happen to any woman. As the baby grows within her womb, she experiences discomfort such as muscle pain, neck and backaches, and even fatigue. Luckily for expecting women out there, a prenatal massage can help alleviate these symptoms and improve overall well-being.

Prenatal Massage Benefits

In prenatal care, it is essential for a mother to have a massage. It not only eases the discomfort that pregnancy brings but also allows your body to do what is needed for you and your baby's health.

The following are a few things that a prenatal massage can do for you:

• stress reduction
• provides relief on back, neck, and head pain;
• reduces inflammation or swelling;
• alleviate muscle cramps;
• minimizes stress on weight-bearing joints;
• improves the quality of sleep;
• stimulates lymph and blood circulation;
• lessens anxiety and depression caused by hormones.

Prenatal massage treatment is not only done once. For constant symptom relief, regular sessions are proven to aid you throughout your pregnancy.

For instance, expert prenatal massage therapists manage muscle pain and backaches by performing light and gentle movements to reduce muscle spams. It also helps the body to release an anti-pain chemical called serotonin to fight recurring pains and aches during the massage.

What to Expect in your Prenatal Massage?

Before the therapy starts, it is important to let your massage therapist know which parts you are experiencing any pain or discomfort. They will thoroughly assess your condition and help you get started by suggesting the perfect massage for you.

Our professional therapist in Massage Rx will work with you to help find the ideal position and provide you relaxation and relief. They will assist you in lying down on your side with comfortable and soft cushions to support you. This will help allow your therapist to apply the right amount of pressure that your body needs.

They also specialize in easing the unwanted strain on your lower back and pelvic areas that may occur while applying pressure. They perform a common massage technique for prenatal massage called effleurage, which is a long and gentle gliding stroke to apply in certain areas distant from your belly, ensuring both you and your baby's condition.
