Perinatal Massage: Keeping You Comfortable is What We Do

 
 

Having a baby changes everything. Especially how your body moves and feels.

That’s why, at Capria Care Collective, we spend a lot of time figuring out how to help birthing parents and new parents-to-be feel like their bodies are supporting them through their baby journey instead of working against them.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PERINATAL MASSAGE?

Massage is an excellent way to calm your mind and treat your body to a deeply restorative experience that leaves you walking out feeling radiant.

As your body changes and grows to accommodate new life, your joints and muscles can pull and become overstrained from the new load. 

Massage therapy helps to mitigate pain, reduce swelling, and restore functionality to these new painful areas. 

A good perinatal massage can help you:

  • Relieve achy joints

  • Sooth & reenergize sore muscles

  • Curb headaches

  • Mitigate the effects of indigestion

  • Reduce stress & anxiety

  • Learn how to feel comfortable lying down

  • Learn how to support your changing body with props & pillows

WHAT BIRTHING PARENTS CAN EXPECT DURING OUR SESSIONS

First things first, pillows. We’ve got a lot of them and we know how to use them to make you feel as though you’re lying on a cloud; weightless and oh so comfortable.

We’ll also teach you how to replicate this pillow setup at home, so you can ensure you’re getting the rest your body needs during the remaining 23 hours that you aren't on our massage table.

We also have a special body pillow system, which allows the birthing parent to lie face down on the table, safely and comfortably DESPITE their growing belly. In this position, you and your unborn babe can both relax while your massage therapist gets to work (best for 15-35 weeks).

When you arrive for a session, we’ll touch base on what’s been bugging you and where you could use some support.

We’ll chat about:

  • Postural changes

  • Where things feel tender

  • Where your stress levels are at

  • Strategies & exercises you can use outside of the session

  • Anything else you feel is relevant

During our session, the time is yours to ask questions, share needs, vent about your day, or just get some quiet time in a comfy, warm, and peaceful space. We leave all judgment at the door and let you take the lead in how you want your sessions to look and feel.

It’s our mission to make sure that every birthing parent who walks through our doors leaves feeling relaxed and revitalized. We'll always go the extra mile to make sure that you're both pampered and cared for because you deserve all the YOU time you can get.
