Best Prenatal Massages near me in Galway

A prenatal massage (pregnancy massage) is a therapeutic massage adapted for pregnant women. It uses modified positioning, cushioning, and gentle techniques to safely address the physical discomforts of pregnancy: including back and hip pain, swollen legs and feet, tension, and fatigue.

Back pain is one of the most common pregnancy complaints that massage effectively addresses. Browse and book pregnancy massage specialists for back pain near you on Fresha.

When you go for a conventional massage, you’ll usually lie down on your stomach for some, or all, of the treatment. This isn’t possible when you’re pregnant, so your therapist will use cushions to support your new shape enabling you to lie safely on your side or back. The massage technique will differ slightly, too; rather than applying any deep tissue pressure, your masseuse is likely to use long, sweeping strokes and work on the areas of your body that will benefit the most.

Side-lying massage is the standard positioning for safe pregnancy treatment. Browse and book the best trained pregnancy massage therapists near you on Fresha.
