Pregnancy is a time of incredible change, and as your body adapts to support your growing baby, it’s common to experience new aches, pains, and physical challenges. Prenatal Massage is a specialized form of massage therapy designed to safely and comfortably support both you and your baby throughout pregnancy.
Our Registered Massage Therapists use gentle, therapeutic techniques tailored to your stage of pregnancy, comfort level, and individual needs. Every treatment is modified to ensure your safety while helping to relieve discomfort, reduce stress, and promote overall well-being.

Your comfort and safety are our highest priorities. Before your treatment, your therapist will complete a thorough health history and discuss any pregnancy-related concerns, symptoms, or recommendations from your healthcare provider.
Treatments are carefully adapted throughout your pregnancy using supportive positioning techniques and specialized cushions or bolsters to ensure you remain comfortable. Your therapist will adjust pressure, positioning, and treatment techniques based on your stage of pregnancy and individual needs.
Every pregnancy is unique, and your treatment plan will be personalized to help you feel your best.
Massage therapy is generally considered safe for most healthy pregnancies when provided by a Registered Massage Therapist with prenatal training. If you have a high-risk pregnancy or any medical concerns, your therapist may recommend obtaining clearance from your physician or midwife before treatment.
If you experience any unusual symptoms before your appointment, please contact your healthcare provider and inform our clinic prior to your visit.
When can I begin Prenatal Massage?
Many clients begin massage during the second trimester, although treatment may be appropriate earlier or later in pregnancy depending on your health history and the recommendations of your healthcare provider.
How often should I receive Prenatal Massage?
Treatment frequency varies depending on your symptoms and goals. Some clients benefit from monthly appointments throughout pregnancy, while others choose more frequent visits as they approach their due date.
Can massage help prepare my body for labour?
While massage cannot induce labour, regular treatments may help reduce muscle tension, improve mobility, promote relaxation, and support overall comfort as your body prepares for delivery.
