Our Massage Services
Prenatal Massage
Relax and reduce the aches and pains from pregnancy with a prenatal massage. Pregnancy massage focuses on the unique needs of the expectant mother and her baby as she goes through the miraculous changes associated with the childbearing year. Prenatal massage brings relief from swelling, stress, muscle cramps, and provides comfort to the mother-to-be. Cushions and pillows are used to place you in a relaxing side-lying position to ensure proper spinal alignment and support. Mild stretching and light Swedish massage strokes are then used to soothe your sore body. You will appreciate the reduced aching in stress bearing joints such as the ankles and lower back. You will leave the session feeling relaxed, restored, and rejuvenated!
Postpartum Massage
During the postpartum period you may experience soreness, fatigue, and aches associated with overused birthing muscles. Light Swedish massage strokes encourage blood circulation, lymphatic fluid flow, and ease tired muscles. Postpartum massage is wonderful for helping return the body to it's pre-pregnancy state and can help speed recovery by promoting relaxation, providing pain relief, and has even been recognized to help improve post-surgical recovery after Cesarean births. Postpartum massage will also help alleviate the "postpartum blues". We promise you'll leave feeling wonderful!
Infant Massage
A new and exciting world awaits your infant. Infant massage helps provide relief for aching infant muscles and helps reduce the discomfort of gas. Infant massage also helps increase the bond between mother and child and encourages healthy interaction through touch. Not only does Body Balance provide infant massage to gain these benefits for your newborn, but we encourage and train the mother to learn infant massage techniques to use at home.
