Although many spas offer prenatal services, we believe postpartum massage is important and very beneficial for new moms. The body goes through incredible changes during pregnancy and childbirth. The hip alignment has shifted. There may be a need for emotional release. The body has experienced labor. If there was a C-section delivery, the organ system needs to heal.
Restorative touch in itself may provide much-needed balance to an overwhelmed new mom, especially when combined with lovely warm-oil scalp massage!
Postpartum massage can speed healing, help regulate hormones, reduce swelling, improve breastfeeding and promote better sleep. We encourage the new mom to discuss her preferences so we can customize a therapeutic massage just for her.
