Bump Baby Body

Pregnancy Massage - Pre & Post Natal

Massage is a wonderful way to help alleviate many of these discomforts, as well as promote a sense of well-being. Our therapists specialise in pre and post-natal massage using different techniques throughout pregnancy. Deep tissue and relaxation massage helps relieve stress, tension and muscular discomfort and increases range of movement. Once youve given birth to your baby bump baby body therapists provide post-natal massage to help restore your body and relieve any muscular tension (particularly if breastfeeding).
