What is Prenatal Massage?

A prenatal massage is a therapeutic treatment designed specifically for pregnant women to alleviate the unique discomforts associated with pregnancy. The massage takes place in one of our treatment serene rooms, with the pregnant woman lying face up and on her side supported by pillows and bolsters to ensure comfort and safety. 


The therapist uses gentle, soothing strokes and avoids deep pressure, particularly on sensitive areas like the lower back and pressure points. Techniques such as light gliding strokes, gentle kneading, and small circular movements are used to relieve tension, reduce swelling, and improve circulation. These techniques help alleviate common pregnancy-related issues like lower back pain, leg cramps, and edema while promoting overall relaxation and stress relief. 


Performed by a licensed therapist trained in prenatal care, this massage not only provides physical comfort but also contributes to the emotional well-being of the expectant mother, preparing her body for labor and enhancing her sense of well-being throughout pregnancy.

Benefits of Prenatal Massage

To name just a few:

  • Reduced Swelling: Massage helps reduce edema, a common issue during pregnancy, by stimulating the lymphatic system.
  • Improved Circulation: Enhanced blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to both the mother and the baby.
  • Stress Relief: Promotes relaxation and reduces stress hormones, contributing to a sense of well-being.
  • Alleviated Pregnancy Symptoms: Can help with headaches, sinus congestion, and sleep issues.
  • Preparation for Labor: Regular prenatal massages can help prepare the body for labor by keeping muscles relaxed and flexible.

What is a Hot Stone Massage?

A hot stone massage is a therapeutic and deeply relaxing treatment that involves the use of smooth, heated stones used by the therapist to perform massage strokes. The stones, typically made of basalt, a type of volcanic rock that retains heat well, are heated to a temperature that is both soothing and safe. 


The warmth from the stones penetrates deep into the muscles, promoting relaxation and easing muscle tension more effectively than a standard massage. The therapist will also use the stones as extensions of their hands to deliver a combination of gentle, gliding strokes and targeted pressure, enhancing the overall massage experience. 


This type of massage improves blood circulation, alleviates pain and stiffness, reduces stress and anxiety, and promotes better sleep. The combination of heat and traditional massage techniques makes hot stone massage an excellent choice for individuals seeking a therapeutic, calming, and rejuvenating experience.

Benefits of Hot Stone Massage

  •   Heat from the stones penetrates deep into the muscles.
  •   Relaxes muscles, leading to enhanced flexibility.
  •   Reduces muscle pain and discomfort.
  •   Promotes better blood flow.
  •   Aids in delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues.
  •   Facilitates the removal of toxins from the body.
  •   Soothing heat helps to reduce stress levels.
  •   Creates a profound sense of relaxation and tranquility.
  •   Beneficial for individuals dealing with chronic stress.
  •   Relaxation promotes improved sleep quality.
  •   Helps the body and mind to be more at ease.
  •   Reduces symptoms of conditions such as fibromyalgia and arthritis.
  •   Alleviates pain and discomfort from chronic pain disorders.

Overall, hot stone massage provides a deeply calming experience that nurtures both the body and the mind, offering a holistic approach to well-being.

What is a Massage with Cupping?

A massage with cupping combines traditional massage techniques with the ancient practice of cupping therapy, which involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This suction lifts and separates layers of skin, fascia, and muscle, promoting increased blood flow and breaking up tension in the tissue. During the session, cups are either left stationary on specific points or glided across the skin to loosen areas of tightness and restriction.


**Benefits** of cupping massage include:

1. **Increased circulation**: Enhanced blood flow to the targeted area, which can speed up healing and reduce inflammation.

2. **Reduced muscle tension**: The suction loosens fascia and releases knots, often resulting in a greater range of motion.

3. **Detoxification**: Improved blood flow aids in removing toxins and waste products from the tissue.

4. **Stress relief**: The relaxing sensation helps to reduce mental and physical stress.

5. **Pain relief**: Regular cupping massage can reduce chronic pain and help manage conditions like arthritis, back pain, and fibromyalgia.


After a cupping massage session, most clients feel relaxed, loose, and less tense. Some report feeling slightly sore, similar to the sensation after a deep tissue massage, but this typically fades within a day. Often, they experience a sense of warmth and lightness in the areas treated, along with an overall feeling of calm and increased well-being. Cupping may leave temporary, painless marks on the skin (ranging from light pink to deeper purple), which are signs of stagnant blood being brought to the surface and are considered part of the healing process.
