Prenatal Massage

Prenatal Massage Eau Claire

Prenatal massage therapy is specifically designed to help relieve discomfort and promote relaxation during the last two trimesters of pregnancy. A prenatal massage is a healthy and relaxing way to reduce stress and relieve the discomforts associated with pregnancy, including backaches, headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, edema, and leg cramps.

At Stucky Chiropractic, located in the Eau Claire and Chippewa Falls area, our experienced massage therapists listen to you and your concerns, then focus on areas of discomfort.

In response to the massage, your body releases serotonin, endorphins, and dopamine. These natural “feel good” chemicals in the body can increase deep sleep, all while easing anxiety and depression caused by hormonal changes, and aiding in mood regulation.

Benefits of a Prenatal Massage

In addition to relieving the common discomforts listed above, this massage can help to reduce stress on weight-bearing joints, easing the pain associated with it.

A prenatal massage also addresses muscle tension caused by carrying the extra weight of a baby, and improve mobility and blood flow, delivering more nutrient-rich oxygen to the body. All of these benefits can also lead to better sleep and relief of the ordinary aches and pains.

Massage can even help stimulate soft tissues to release excess fluid that has built up, resulting in swollen joints. This process can also improve the removal of tissue waste that is carried by the body’s lymph system.
