Swedish Massage
I use the principles that are based on Swedish massage techniques. Swedish massage has been proven to help reduce muscle tension and it can improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage. The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the blood’s oxygen flow and assist in toxin removal from the muscles. This is achieved through mild pressure applied to the muscle groups of the body.
The Swedish massage involves rolling, tapping, kneading, percussion, vibration and massage oil that protects skin from friction.

Prenatal massage
The body changes in ways as a mother you didn’t anticipate as the baby grows. This results in spine shifts, while the tendons and ligaments are under pressure to support you. With the emotional rollercoaster and changes happening to your body, a pregnancy massage comes in handy in the following ways:
- Improves sleep
- Reduces swelling
- Eases stress and anxiety
- Provides an overall sense of well being
- Relieves pain
- Increases oxygenation of muscles and tissues
- Hormone regulation
- Rejuvenate energy
Relieves the everyday discomforts of pregnancy such as an aching neck, sore back, and heaviness in the pelvic bones, leg cramps, swelling of the ankles and feet and oedema (fluid retention)
Prenatal massage is different from regular massage in the manner that for pregnancy massage, the comfort and safety of the mother is a priority. Instead of lying on your back or stomach, you will be positioned to lie on your side with the support of bolsters or pillows or padding.
Pregnancy Massage Benefits include:
- Alleviating back + leg pain
- Reducing labor pain during childbirth
- Lessening postoperative pain
- Reducing anxiety + stress
- Improving mood + lifting depression
- Easing insomnia
