Pregnancy Massage
Gentle, informed care for your changing body - led by a midwife who understands pregnancy.
Pregnancy massage at Birth Boutique is a calm, supportive treatment designed specifically for pregnancy. Each session is guided by clinical knowledge, experience, and an understanding of how pregnancy can feel in real bodies - not just in theory.
This is time to slow down, feel comfortable and supported, and receive hands-on care that respects both your body and your pregnancy. Treatments are unhurried, responsive, and always adapted to how you are feeling on the day.
You don’t need to arrive with a problem to fix. You simply need space to rest - and to be looked after by someone who understands pregnancy.
Is pregnancy massage safe?
​
It’s very normal to feel cautious about hands-on treatments during pregnancy. Many people tell us this is the first question they ask - and it’s an important one.
At Birth Boutique, pregnancy massage is offered from 12 weeks onwards and is always guided by a midwife-led consultation. Massage techniques, positioning and pressure are adapted to suit your body and your pregnancy, and care is responsive to how you are feeling on the day.
Some form of massage can almost always be offered. The main consideration is whether essential oils are appropriate for you at that stage of pregnancy. This is something we decide together following your consultation.
​
When essential oils are suitable, you’ll be invited to choose from a small selection, which are then blended bespoke for you. If oils aren’t appropriate, your treatment will still be deeply supportive and nurturing, using unscented products instead.
Nothing is ever assumed, and nothing is rushed. If something doesn’t feel right, we adapt - or we pause.
Your comfort, safety and peace of mind are always our priority.
If you’re unsure whether pregnancy massage is right for you, you’re very welcome to get in touch before booking. We’re always happy to talk things through.
​​​​
​
All pregnancy massage treatments at Birth Boutique are provided by a registered midwife. This means your care is thoughtful, considered, and always adapted to you and your pregnancy on the day.
What happens during your appointment?
​
Your appointment begins with a short, gentle consultation, giving you space to share how you’re feeling, how your pregnancy is progressing, and what would feel most supportive for you on the day.
There’s no need to prepare anything in advance - we’ll guide the conversation together.
​
​
For the 90-minute pregnancy massage, treatment usually begins with you lying comfortably on your back with the head of the couch raised and your body fully supported. We start by working through areas such as the head, face, shoulders, abdomen, legs and feet, before moving into side-lying positions to massage the hips and back. Positioning is always adapted to keep you comfortable throughout.
​
​
The 45-minute pregnancy massage is more focused and guided by where you’re feeling most in need of support on the day.
If essential oils are appropriate for you, you’ll be invited to choose from a small selection, which are then blended specifically for you following your consultation. If oils aren’t suitable, your massage will still be nurturing and supportive using unscented products.
At the end of your treatment, you’ll be offered a refreshing glass of water while we briefly talk through possible healing responses and what to expect afterwards, before you continue with your day.
