pregnancy
Pregnancy massage is usually done in a side-lying position with plenty of pillows or cushions for support. The massage addresses the whole body through careful positioning.
It provides relaxation by relieving stress on joints, easing pain, & helping with the postural changes associated with the progressing pregnancy. Massage therapy is also believed to stimulate the endocrine system, which helps to stabilize hormone levels & relieve nervous tension. Massage oils & creams that contain vitamin E may help keep the skin supple, which can reduce the discomfort caused by the stretching belly.
