The Benefits of Pregnancy Massage

Alleviate Pain

Back pain is a common health issue in pregnant women. This can be explained by some physiologic changes in the body. Firstly, weight gain can happen, which subsequently puts more pressure on the abdominal area and changes the spinal posture as well as shift the center of gravity. This causes discomfort in different body parts, such as the shoulder, neck, and pelvic. The levels of some hormones can also increase and increase the laxity of ligaments and joints. This eventually results in back pain. Professional pregnancy massage can help alleviate these aches, especially on your back and leg. [2]
