Pregnancy Massage
You may think of massage as a luxury to indulge in on occasion. But one of the most beneficial times for massage may be during pregnancy. Pregnancy massage is a catch-all term for any hands-on massage during or after pregnancy (prenatal or postnatal massage). Pregnancy massage is similar in many ways to a normal massage, the main difference being that massage techniques used in pregnancy are adapted to maintain the wellbeing of mother and child. Techniques vary from firmer massages to relieve discomfort, or softer massages to help relax the expectant mother. It’s possible for women to receive massages throughout the duration of their pregnancy, with techniques adapted to each stage of pregnancy. Women in their first trimester may not want a massage or may want to get approval from their doctor because of the increased risk of miscarriage associated with the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. You should also avoid massages on your abdomen during the first trimester.
Benefits include: Relief from aching muscles and joint pain, reduction in anxiety and stress, improved sleep, reduced swelling, reduced cramps, reduced constipation and reduced nerve pain. It also helps to reduce the baby’s stress hormones.
Thai Foot (and hand) Massage
A Thai foot massage applies pressure to areas of the soles of feet and hands. The therapist uses his or her hands to move you into a series of stretches and also applies deep muscle compression, joint mobilization, and acupressure. Thai massage utilizes energy, which according to ancient Asian culture, treats the subtle energetic field within the body. Thai massage is an ancient practice with many benefits that are supported by modern science. It may reduce the severity of your headaches, decrease lower back and joint pain, increase your flexibility, calm your anxieties and energize your mind and body.
