Pregnancy Massage in Calgary
Our Calgary massage and wellness clinic offers a variety of massage services to relieve your pain, discomfort and stress. One of the areas we focus in is massage therapy for women who are pregnant. Pregnancy is hard on the body, especially towards the third trimester. Massage therapy can help alleviate some of the pain in areas of the body where pregnancy can be especially difficult.
Pregnancy Massage Benefits: First Trimester
There are several benefits of massage therapy during pregnancy. First, it can help relax muscles and ease tension. Second, it can help relieve stress and anxiety. Third, it can help promote healthy sleep patterns. Fourth, it can help alleviate some of the discomforts associated with being pregnant. Finally, it can help prepare the body for childbirth.
Massage therapy during the first trimester of pregnancy can help with morning sickness, backaches, leg cramps, and other common pregnancy issues that can arise during the first trimester. A registered massage therapist will work out a plan based on what kind of massage would be most beneficial for each woman. In addition to helping relieve stress and tension, massages can improve circulation and increase blood flow throughout the body.
Pregnancy Massage Benefits: Second Trimester
In the second trimester, massage therapy can help ease discomfort caused by swelling and weight gain. It can also help relax tense muscles and promote circulation. It has been found that massage therapy during pregnancy helps relieve back pain, headaches, nausea, and other symptoms associated with pregnancy. In addition, massage therapy has been shown to improve sleep quality and reduce stress levels.
Pregnancy Massage Benefits: Third Trimester
Massage therapy during the third trimester can help with relaxation, comfort, and relief of symptoms associated with pregnancy. It can also help prepare the body for delivery. The benefits of prenatal massage include increased blood flow to the uterus, which helps prevent premature contractions; reduced stress levels; improved circulation; and decreased back pain.
