Massage and Bodywork Therapists

Pregnancy can create its own type of stress on your body. "I personally remember going to get my massage and feeling like a beached whale," one mother noted, "but when I finished I came out floating like a feather." The benefits of prenatal massage therapy are many for both you and baby.

Infant massage also has a multitude of wonderful benefits. It is especially recommended for preemies' development. Both pregnancy and infant massage enhance the bonding process.

Therapeutic massage therapists can be certified for the child bearing years. This work will also help you get in touch with your body in preparation for birth. It can contribute to your ability to appreciate and celebrate your body, allowing you to trust it during birth.

Please contact the practitioner directly to schedule an appointment or if you have any questions. Be sure to let them know BirthLink sent you!

If you can't find a practitioner near you please contact us.

"After a natural birth where parents have worked together to love their baby forth, the hearts and energy fields of mother, father and baby are open to their fullest."
- Sunni Karll, Making a Difference: A Blueprint for Harmony, Midwifery Today, Summer 2001
