Induction Massage

At 37 weeks you are considered full-term. At this point it is safe for you and your baby to receive an induction massage. This massage combines specialized essential oils that work to contract your uterus with acupressure applied to specific pressure points to elevate your natural levels of oxytocin. The stimulation of acupressure points during the massage assists in supporting the natural body processes, such as facilitating the uterus to contract, descent of the baby, helping the cervix to thin and open, and the release of your birth show (mucus plug).
