Pregnancy Massage is done on women who are at least 13 weeks along in their pregnancy. This is for safety purposes as a woman is most susceptible to miscarriage before the 13th week. After this time an embryo is considered well established. This massage is done while a woman is lying on her side. There are usually lots of pillow props to cushion the belly, knees, head and arms. Pregnancy massage is always done with medium to light pressure as any deep pressure is not considered safe for pregnancy. Pregnancy massage is a great way to relax and help the body move through all the changes during pregnancy and help prepare for birth. 

The Arvigo® Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy work on all levels, resulting in a safer and gentler progress through from preconception to babe in arms for both mother and baby. Giving instant relief and support to a growing uterus, and relieving almost all pregnancy complaints.

​ By continuing working with the back and the belly as the pregnancy progresses, the stretching ligaments are encouraged into perfect functioning.  This work can instantly and permanently relieve all back, especially sacral torsion and sciatica leading to much easier late pregnancy and birthing ease.
