Prenatal Massage at Massage Eden – Safe, Soothing Relief for Expecting Mothers
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey—but it also brings physical and emotional changes that can be overwhelming. At Massage Eden, we specialize in prenatal massage therapy designed to support your body during this special time. Whether you’re in your first trimester or nearing your due date, our trained therapists in Auckland and Rotorua offer safe, deeply relaxing treatments tailored just for you.
What Is Prenatal Massage?
Prenatal massage is a gentle, nurturing form of therapeutic massage specifically adapted to the needs of pregnant women. It focuses on relieving pregnancy-related discomforts such as back pain, swollen feet, fatigue, and emotional stress, while promoting healthy circulation and rest.
5 Key Benefits of Prenatal Massage
1. Relieves Back and Hip Pain
As your baby grows, your center of gravity shifts—often causing strain on the lower back and hips. Our prenatal massage uses safe techniques to release tension in these areas, helping you move and sleep more comfortably.
2. Reduces Swelling and Improves Circulation
Pregnancy can slow your circulation and increase fluid retention. Gentle massage helps boost blood flow and lymphatic drainage, which may reduce swelling in the legs, ankles, and feet.
3. Supports Better Sleep
Many pregnant women struggle with restless sleep. Massage promotes the release of serotonin and melatonin—natural hormones that regulate sleep and reduce anxiety—helping you get the rest your body needs.
4. Eases Headaches and Muscle Tension
From tension headaches to tight shoulders, pregnancy can cause a range of discomforts. Our trained therapists use light pressure and soothing strokes to melt away muscle knots while ensuring your safety and comfort.
5. Enhances Emotional Well-being
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can lead to emotional ups and downs. A calming massage can help you reconnect with your body and your baby, leaving you feeling grounded, relaxed, and supported.
