Prenatal Massage

A massage therapy during pregnancy is a wonderful complementary choice for prenatal care. It is a health way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness. Massage relieves many of the normal discomforts experienced during pregnancy, legs scraps, headaches and edemas (swelling). It reduces stress on weight-bearing joints, encourages blood and lymph circulation, helps to relax nerves, tension which aids in the better sleep and can help relieve depression or anxiety caused by hormonal changes. At Lux, our therapists take extra care to ensure our pregnancy massage clients are comfortable. Side line positioning with supportive soft cushions are used to alleviate the extra strain on the pressure of massage. Techniques are applied as extra strain in these areas can cause unnecessary back or abdominal pain, so naturally we want to avoid any potintial discomfort.
