Carrying a baby changes your centre of gravity and puts a lot of stress on your back, neck, abdominal muscles, and shoulders. Pregnancy massage can help to relieve tight uncomfortable muscles, ease stress and can help support better sleeping patterns. It can really benefit your baby as well through increased circulation, nutrients and endorphins which makes them feel great and encourages growth.
Women visit our Melbourne Pregnancy Massage clinic for all kinds of reasons: to ease aches and pains, to get some precious ‘me time’, to prepare for birth and to alleviate aches after their baby has arrived.
Pregnancy massage can have many benefits, aside from being a wonderfully relaxing and luxurious experience, perfect to soothe you and baby. These include:
-reduction of cramping, particularly in the lower legs
-assist with sore hips, and lower back due to the pelvis tilting
-improved circulation to prevent night cramps,
-promoting better health for your developing baby,
-less swelling and fluid retention.
-reduced chance of varicose veins and high blood pressure.
Pregnancy massage will also help you to ease back pain, sciatica, low energy levels, stretch marks and disturbed sleep and will give you, the mother the chance to gain some emotional support, calm in both mind and body, and re connect with yourself in these intense 3 trimesters.
Our therapists are all specifically trained in pregnancy massage which not only differs from a standard massage but also as your pregnancy progresses, techniques and contraindications also change.
You need to feel comfortable that your therapist is fully qualified and understands the different massage techniques and things to avoid during each trimester .
What happens in your pregnancy massage?
When we first meet, there is a full consultation concerning your pregnancy, health and needs. From this exchange we can decide what your objectives are and what kind of massage is most beneficial. At Soul2Sole we use a natural almond based massage oil. We do not use any essential oils or processed oils in your treatment. This is of utmost importance for you and your baby. Your massage session will include some or all of the following techniques. Simply tell us what your needs are.

Together we can find ways to allow you to deeply relax, at whatever stage of pregnancy you are in.
You will be lying on our specialised Pregnancy Belly Pillow which is placed on a really comfy massage table and supported by an array of cushions so you feel cocooned, supported and ready to let go.
Your comfort is the most important thing. Our Belly Pillow will allow you to lie on your tummy without harming your baby.
The first trimester can be both an anxious and exciting time; with the hormonal changes taking place you can feel tired, emotional and nauseous. Gentle massage at this time may help to settle your body and:
relieve muscular tension
reduce anxiety and support calmness
relieve headaches
provide reassurance and support
Second Trimester
As your baby grows you may be feeling the strain! As well as relieving the muscular aches and pains, you can start to make a connection with your baby using breathing techniques that you and your partner can do together at home. Massage may also help to:
manage oedema and swollen joints
ease your aching back and legs
help you get a good night’s sleep
support postural awareness
Third Trimester
As you start to look forward to the birth, you can involve your partner by bringing him to a massage lesson for pregnancy and birth. This can help you both make a good connection with your baby, ease your aches on a daily basis.
We look forward to working with you soon. Feel free to give us a call so we can answer any questions you may have. One of our pregnancy massage experts will be glad to assist.
