Pregnancy Massage in York
Specialist Care for Expectant Mothers
At Debbie Priestley Integrated Health Solutions, I offer pregnancy massage to support the health and well-being of expectant mothers.
This specialised treatment is designed to relieve discomfort, reduce stress, and promote relaxation throughout all stages of pregnancy.
What is Pregnancy Massage?
Pregnancy massage is a therapeutic treatment tailored to the unique needs of pregnant women.
It focuses on areas of tension, helps alleviate pregnancy-related discomforts, and provides a safe, nurturing experience.
Benefits of Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy can bring physical and emotional challenges, and massage offers a range of benefits to help you feel your best:
Relief from Aches and Pains
Target common issues such as lower back pain, hip discomfort, and sciatica.
Reduced Swelling
Improve circulation and reduce fluid retention in the hands, feet, and legs.
Stress Reduction
Promote relaxation and improve sleep quality by lowering cortisol levels.
Enhanced Mobility
Ease tension in muscles and joints, improving comfort as your body changes.
These benefits extend beyond physical relief, contributing to a calmer, more balanced pregnancy experience.
Pregnancy Massage
Is Pregnancy Massage Safe?
Yes, pregnancy massage is entirely safe when performed by a qualified therapist. I use techniques and positioning designed to ensure your comfort and well-being, with special attention to:
- Supporting the body in a side-lying or semi-reclined position.
- Using gentle, soothing pressure suitable for pregnancy.
- Avoiding pressure points and techniques that could cause discomfort.
You can rest assured that your treatment will be both safe and relaxing.
When Can I Have a Pregnancy Massage?
Pregnancy massage is suitable from the second trimester. Whether you’re seeking relief from early pregnancy symptoms or preparing for labour, this treatment can be adapted to meet your needs at any stage.
What to Expect During Your Session
Your pregnancy massage session is designed to provide the ultimate relaxation while addressing specific areas of concern. Here’s what you can expect:
- A calming, private environment to help you unwind.
- A full consultation to understand your needs and preferences.
- Tailored techniques to relieve discomfort and promote relaxation.
- Comfort measures such as cushions and supports to ensure you’re completely at ease.
Sessions typically last between 45 and 60 minutes, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalised.
