Pregnancy also relaxes your ligaments, so that your pelvic joints are less stable and your posture changes which pulls your pelvis forward which can lead to an aching back. Having gone through pregnancy myself I can provide a nurturing, empathic environment in which to provide this enjoyable, relaxing massage experience. Following the consultation I will help you to lie on your side on the couch well supported by pillows so you are comfortable. During the massage you will only have the area of skin I am working on at that point exposed so your dignity will be preserved. I will check with you regularly that you are comfortable and the massage pressure is right for you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
