Service Description
Pregnancy Massage Therapy is a gentle, nurturing treatment designed to encourage relaxation and ease everyday muscular tension during pregnancy. Adapted Swedish massage techniques are used to create a calming experience tailored to your stage of pregnancy and comfort. Your health history, stage of pregnancy and treatment goals are discussed before the session. Pressure, treatment areas and positioning are adapted throughout, with supportive cushions to help you feel comfortable. For your safety and insurance compliance, written consent from your GP or midwife is required prior to booking. What to Expect During the Treatment: • A brief consultation before treatment • Gentle massage adapted to your comfort and priority areas • Supported side-lying positioning, or a semi-reclined position where appropriate • Appropriate draping and ongoing consent Important: This treatment is available after the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. For your safety and insurance compliance, written consent from your GP or midwife is required prior to booking. This is a complementary wellbeing treatment and is not a substitute for antenatal assessment or medical care. This clinic treatment is not offered for high-risk pregnancies. Treatment must be postponed if you have pregnancy-related high blood pressure, pre-eclampsia, a suspected or confirmed blood clot, unexplained bleeding, contractions, fever, an active infection or advice from your healthcare professional to avoid massage. If you develop severe headache, vision changes, sudden swelling, bleeding or a change in your baby’s usual movements, seek prompt advice from your midwife or maternity service before considering treatment. Aftercare: Allow time to rest, get up slowly, drink according to your normal needs and follow any personalised advice provided after your session. Continue gentle movement within your comfort level and in line with your maternity care team’s advice. Please let the clinic know about any changes in your health before your next appointment.
