3. Do you provide special pillows for pregnant clients?
Yes, we do! We want you to feel as comfortable as possible during your massage. Jessie has special pillows that allow you to lie face down comfortably, creating a relaxing experience akin to resting on a cloud. However, if you prefer side-lying positions, we have plenty of pillows available for that too.
4. Are there any specific concerns I should discuss before my prenatal massage?
Before your session, it’s a good idea to chat with Jessie about any concerns or areas of discomfort you may have. Additionally, if you have any underlying medical conditions or are considered high-risk during pregnancy, it’s best to consult with your healthcare provider beforehand.
5. When is the best time to start getting prenatal massages?
You can start prenatal massages at any stage of your pregnancy. Many clients find it beneficial right from the beginning. Always listen to your body and consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new wellness routines during pregnancy.
6. Can prenatal massage help with common pregnancy discomforts?
Absolutely! Jessie specializes in addressing common pregnancy discomforts like back pain, swollen feet, and sciatic nerve pain. She’ll tailor your massage to target your specific needs, promoting relaxation and overall well-being.
7. How long are prenatal massage sessions?
Your comfort and relaxation are our priority, so prenatal massage sessions typically last between 60 to 90 minutes. This gives you plenty of time to unwind and address any specific areas of concern.
8. Is it okay to receive chiropractic adjustments along with prenatal massage?
Yes, chiropractic adjustments can complement your prenatal massage experience by addressing any misalignments or discomforts in your spine and pelvis. Our team works together to provide holistic care, ensuring you feel supported and nurtured throughout your pregnancy journey.
9. Will my big belly make it uncomfortable on the massage table?
Not at all! We understand that comfort is crucial, especially as your belly grows. Jessie uses special pillows that allow you to lie face down comfortably, making you feel like you’re resting on a cloud. These pillows are designed to support your body and accommodate your belly, ensuring you can fully relax. If you prefer, we also have plenty of pillows for side-lying positions, so you can choose the most comfortable option for you.
