The Happy Mama Place Prenatal Massage:
What to Expect
All of the prenatal massage techniques we use are built on evidence-based practices to keep mother and baby happy, healthy, and safe.
Your well-being is my ultimate goal, and I’m committed to providing you with a deeply supportive and nurturing prenatal massage experience.
During our sessions, I prioritize your modesty and comfort. With carefully arranged draping, I can work on your body while ensuring you feel at ease and relaxed throughout the massage.
To start, you’ll be placed in a sideline position with ample pillows strategically placed to align your body, take weight off your pressure points, increase blood flow, and create more space in your pelvic region. This position and the massage will leave you relaxed, open, and balanced, providing more room for the baby.
From there, I’ll address your specific needs with a tailored prenatal massage that addresses any discomfort or pain you have while being mindful of your body’s and baby’s needs at each stage of pregnancy.

Are prenatal massages safe?
Yes, prenatal massages can be safe and highly beneficial to pregnant mothers, as long as they are provided by an expert. A prenatal massage can relieve pain and tension caused by pregnancy-related body changes, improve sleep, reduce swelling, and lessen stress and anxiety.
If you’re considering a prenatal massage, it’s important to speak with your doctor or midwife, as each pregnancy is different. Doing so can help your massage therapist address your specific needs and ensure that your experience is as safe as it is relaxing.
When can you get a prenatal massage?
Most women can enjoy a prenatal massage at any time during their pregnancy, including during their first and third trimesters. As a certified prenatal massage therapist, I strive to provide a massage experience that meets your specific needs at each step of your pregnancy.
