Prenatal
Massage

Structured, ongoing support for expectant mothers - built around your body's changing needs at every stage of pregnancy.

1

Soft Tissue Relief

Targeted pressure applied to the lower back, hips, and shoulders - the areas most affected by postural shifts during pregnancy. Sessions are adapted to your current trimester and comfort level, using side-lying positioning for safety throughout.

The work focuses on reducing muscle tension without deep compression on joints or ligaments under hormonal relaxation.

  • 60 min
  • 90 min
  • Trimester-safe
2

Oedema Management

Gentle rhythmic strokes along the lymphatic pathways to reduce fluid retention in the legs, ankles, and hands - a common discomfort from the second trimester onward. Technique is kept light and directional, never applied to varicose veins or inflamed areas.

3

Nervous System Calm

Slow, sustained pressure on the parasympathetic trigger points along the spine and sacrum. This approach works best when anxiety or disrupted sleep is the primary concern rather than localised pain.

4

Ongoing Mentorship Plans

A structured series of sessions planned across your second and third trimesters, with check-ins between appointments to adjust technique as your body changes. Each plan includes written session notes, a recommended home stretching guide, and direct access to your practitioner for questions between visits.

  • 6-session block
  • 12-session block
  • Custom schedule
  • Remote guidance
"The sessions didn't just ease the physical discomfort - they gave me a clearer sense of what my body actually needed at each stage."
- Brigitte Okafor, Brisbane
What to expect

Each session follows a clear structure

There are no surprises in how sessions run. The format is consistent so you can focus on the experience rather than logistics.

1

Initial intake

A short written form covers your trimester, any conditions flagged by your midwife, and what's been bothering you most. Takes about 5 minutes before the first session.

2

Positioning setup

Side-lying with bolsters and pillows positioned specifically for your stage of pregnancy. Comfort is confirmed before any work begins.

3

Focused bodywork

Technique is chosen based on your intake notes and adjusted in real time. You can ask to skip any area or change pressure at any point.

4

Post-session notes

A brief summary of what was worked on, what to watch for in the following days, and any home care suggestions relevant to your current stage.
