Structural changes in the body during pregnancy put stress on the weight bearing joints of the hips, pelvis and lower back. The labor and birth experience can cause lingering soreness in legs, back and shoulders, and caring for a newborn puts strain on the back, neck and wrists.

Words from our Clients
Rose C. says...
"I went to Emma for both pre and postnatal massages religiously. Regardless of pregnancy, I've always liked deep tissue massages to really get into the knots. During my third trimester, I went to Emma twice a month which I always looked forward to and saw as my reward and relief from carrying another LIFE and those extra pounds every day. My swollen feet and hands felt SO GOOD because Emma would really squeeze and kneed and push the extra fluid out of them. Every time I would come out feeling lighter and brighter physically and mentally. I also scheduled a postpartum massage two months after BB. It was again a reward for myself for making it 2 months and doing a good job. Even though it was hard tot take time for myself, I'm so glad I did. By then I was healed but also starting to get the aches / stiffness (different from pre) from healing in bed and carrying BB. She knew exactly what areas I needed. Her expertise on being dedicated to pre and postnatal massage is apparent. She says postnatal is forever :) and that I've earned it, so I plan to keep booking her as my reward to myself.."

"Emma is phenomenal at what she does. She was able to quickly identify what was creating my shoulder tension and remedy it. I wish I had found her during my pregnancy but grateful to have found her postpartum"
