Pregnancy Massage Christchurch

Pregnancy massage is a safe, soothing way to ease tension, stay comfortable, and prepare your body for the busy months ahead. Here are the common questions we’re asked:

1. Do you have to massage the belly?
No. Belly massage is optional. Most treatments focus on the areas that work hardest during pregnancy — shoulders, back, hips, and calves.

2. Does the pressure have to be light?
Not unless you prefer it. If your pregnancy is progressing normally and you’re used to massage, we can use the pressure that feels right for you. We simply avoid deep hip-flexor work.

3. Is side-lying uncomfortable?
With supportive pillows, it’s usually very comfortable. Short periods on your back are also fine with proper bolstering.

When to book
Massage can help as your body changes, movement becomes more limited, or aches start to build. After baby arrives, we can also support recovery from lower-back, shoulder, or feeding-related tension — or simply give you a much-needed hour to rest.
