Whether you need to unwind or are experiencing back problems, PMS or other aches and pains, our massage therapy services offer relief.
Massage therapy is provided in a relaxing environment and is offered at competitive rates.
Studies suggest that massage therapy offers several benefits to pregnant women.
It can help you to relax, relieving stress and anxiety, and increase your mood-boosting hormones.
Massage therapy can also improve blood circulation and reduce swelling of the joints, including in the hands, feet and ankles. In addition, nerve pain, which pregnant women commonly experience, may be reduced.
Massage therapy is safe for pregnant women throughout the course of their pregnancies. However, because the risk of miscarriage is greatest in the first trimester, many massage therapists offer massage to women in their second and third trimesters only.
At Catholic Health, massage therapy is offered to women in their first trimester if they have a doctor's note. The note can be faxed or brought to the appointment.
