Common Questions About Massage in Pregnancy and Postpartum
Is massage safe in the first trimester?
Yes, when performed by a trained practitioner. We assess each client's needs individually and adjust accordingly.
Can massage help with postpartum depression and anxiety?
Massage supports emotional regulation and lowers cortisol levels, which can be helpful alongside other treatments.
Do I need a doctor’s note?
Usually not, but we may request one for high-risk pregnancies or medical conditions. We’re happy to coordinate with your care team.
