WHAT MAKES PRENATAL MASSAGE DIFFERENT?
Unlike regular massages, prenatal massages are specifically tailored to address the unique needs of pregnant women. Therapists trained in prenatal massage understand the nuances of pregnancy and adapt their techniques accordingly. They focus on areas that are often strained during pregnancy, such as the lower back, neck, hips, and legs.
BENEFITS OF PRENATAL MASSAGES
Here are the various benefits of prenatal massages for both expectant mothers and their babies:
- Reduced discomforts. One of the most apparent benefits of prenatal massage is the reduction of pregnancy-related discomforts. According to the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), prenatal massage can alleviate back and leg pain, which are common complaints among pregnant women.
- Stress relief. Pregnancy can be a stressful period due to hormonal changes, physical discomforts, and the anticipation of childbirth. Research shows that massage can reduce stress hormones in the body, promoting relaxation and loosening tight muscles.
- Improved sleep quality. Sleep disturbances are frequent during pregnancy, often due to physical discomfort and hormonal fluctuations. By reducing pain and tension, prenatal massage can contribute to more restful nights.
- Labor and delivery benefits. Beyond providing comfort during pregnancy, prenatal massage can also have benefits during labor and delivery. The AMTA suggests that massage can reduce labor pain during childbirth. Further, the increased circulation from massage may help oxygenate the body and prepare it for the strenuous process of childbirth.
- Postnatal healing. The benefits of prenatal massage extend to the postnatal period as well. According to the AMTA, one of the benefits of massage therapy during pregnancy is lessening postoperative pain, which may be particularly beneficial for mothers who undergo a cesarean section.
