Have you ever felt anxious about treating a pregnant client and unsure of how to provide safe and effective massage therapy care during this special time in her life?
As a massage therapist, you know how pain and discomfort can affect your clients’ daily lives, and pregnant women feel this pain on top of the discomforts of pregnancy.
It can be discouraging not to have the tools or knowledge to respond effectively to their needs. Many massage therapists have faced similar challenges when treating pregnant clients. That’s why we’ve created our Pregnancy Massage Course to provide you with the skills and knowledge you need to confidently treat pregnant women and improve your massage practice.
Prenatal massage, or massage for pregnant women, is adapted to the different physiological changes a woman undergoes during pregnancy. This massage is gentle and very enveloping. Its aim is to improve circulation and overall comfort for the mother-to-be.
Accompanying a pregnant woman through the various stages of pregnancy using massage is a real privilege! You’ll learn to master a variety of maneuvers that will promote muscular and psychological relaxation. You’ll also be able to provide the mother-to-be with valuable advice and help her prepare for childbirth.
The maneuvers you’ll learn can also be adapted for anyone with limited mobility or who can’t lie in the prone position.
