Prenatal and Postpartum Recovery Massage in Portland, OR

$90/60 min.
$120/90 min.

Prenatal massage offers support during the beautiful and physically-demanding season of pregnancy.  Your massage will address common discomforts associated with pregnancy like swelling, hip and low back pain, and shoulder tension. 

To provide optimal safety and care, prenatal massage is given in a side-lying position after the first trimester.  This special positioning maximizes maternal cardiac function, reduces uterine ligament strain, and avoids sinus congestion.  It also reduces intrauterine pressure and is just more comfy!  Special pillows and bolsters will be used to make sure you feel comfortable and supported during your massage.

We are also equipped to support your recovery process postpartum.  Expect to be treated with the utmost respect and nurture as we support you during this transitional time.  Extra care will be given to hip alignment and the tension that so often accumulates in the upper body while acclimating to feeding and carrying the baby.

Client Experiences

"I've now had prenatal massages from both Abby and Dierdre and they were both fantastic!  Not only are they incredibly friendly women but their spaces are beautiful and calming and they give amazing massages. The end of my pregnancy was really tough and their massages really helped me to get through those last few weeks. Highly recommended!"
~Andrea F.

"Abby is Amazingly Awesome at what she does!  Her warm and happy personality really make me feel welcomed every time I walk in the door.  I started going to her when my doctor recommended some massage therapy to help with my pregnancy.  And getting that extra hour of relaxation was greatly beneficial.  I definitely recommend doing prenatal massages!  Now that I have had my baby, I still come in regularly.  Plus, I even got my husband to come in as well, so now it's a family spa day when we go :)"
