Massage during pregnancy is a great experiene helping mothers/surrogates relax which in turn keeps the baby calm and relaxed too. Ensuring mother/surrogate is feeling relaxed throughout the pregnancy generally results in a more relaxed pregnancy and birth. As well as relaxation, massage will support the body during a period of physiological change, relieve aches, pains and common health problems experienced during pregnancy, improve sleep, reduce anxiety and help prepare the whole body for birth.
