How is Prenatal Massage Different?

Prenatal massage focuses specifically on the needs of the pregnant body.  Birth Works Massage Therapists, Cora and Mary, will use special bolsters and pillows to support the body through all stages of pregnancy. You will not only receive knowledgeable treatment specifically designed for pregnancy, but also learn self care techniques to increase your comfort at home.  Birth Works Therapists will give you feedback on posture and suggest gentle stretches and exercises to relieve tension.  You might also learn relaxation and breathing exercises to help combat stress in pregnancy that can be used in labor as well.
