This 60 minute pregnancy massage is designed to ease the physical strain that can build through pregnancy. Using comfortable, supported positioning and gentle, pregnancy-safe techniques, the treatment focuses on common areas of tension like the lower back, hips, legs, shoulders and neck to help you feel lighter, calmer and more at ease.
More information
What a 60 minute pregnancy massage includes
A full hour devoted to comfort, circulation and muscle relief, with your body safely supported throughout.
- A short consultation to check how you are feeling, how far along you are, and any areas to avoid.
- Side-lying and supported positioning using cushions to reduce pressure on the bump and lower back.
- Gentle to medium pressure massage to release tightness in the lower back and hips.
- Work on legs and feet to support circulation and help with that heavy, swollen feeling.
- Shoulder, upper back and neck massage to ease postural tension from a changing centre of gravity.
- Pregnancy-appropriate products and techniques, avoiding deep abdominal work.
Comfort and safety built into the pregnancy massage setup
Pregnancy massage is not the same as a standard full-body massage. Positioning, pressure and area selection are adjusted to keep you comfortable and to avoid unnecessary strain.
You will be supported in a side-lying position, with cushions placed to steady hips, bump and legs. Your therapist will check pressure regularly and can switch focus between back, hips, legs, shoulders or scalp depending on where you are holding tension.
Common reasons clients book a 60 minute pregnancy massage
This treatment is often chosen when day-to-day movement starts to feel harder, sleep becomes lighter, or certain muscles are working overtime.
- Ongoing lower back ache or tight hips
- Neck and shoulder tension from posture changes
- Restless legs, tired feet or mild swelling
- Feeling mentally overloaded and wanting time to properly switch off
After your pregnancy massage: getting the most from the relief
You may feel looser through the back and hips straight away, with a deeper sense of calm in the hours after.
Drink water, take a gentle walk if it feels good, and plan a quiet evening if you can. If aches return quickly, regular sessions can help manage tension as your body continues to change.
