Mom and Baby

Pregnancy Massage

Prenatal and postnatal massage can greatly benefit new moms. Massage is used to: ease the stresses of pregnancy, alleviate sore back, neck, and leg muscles, improve circulation, lower blood pressure, reduce swelling in ankles and hands, improve mood, and enhance a sense of well-being. At the Massage Therapy & Wellness Center, we have many years of experience in working with women in all stages of pregnancy and post-partum.

Infant Massage

Infant massage is an ancient method for calming baby and helping her feel at ease in her environment. Baby massage at the Massage Therapy & Wellness Center is taught by Patsi Gately, a certified Baby's First Massage practitioner. Patsi teaches in a group setting or in individual infant-parent(s) sessions. Baby massage can promote deeper, restful sleep, aid in digestion, and relieve colic or constipation. Massage can also improve functioning of the immune system. The most important consideration, however, is the joy given to the child and parents as they share this special time. Massage is one of many approaches to help increase bonding, love, and trust between baby and his family.
