Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy is a time of extraordinary change — physically, emotionally, and hormonally. While it’s often celebrated, it can also be uncomfortable, exhausting, and overwhelming. Pregnancy massage provides a safe and supportive space to relieve the common discomforts of pregnancy — from lower back and hip pain to swelling, fatigue, and trouble sleeping. I offer professional, qualified massage for pregnant people at all stages of their pregnancy. Using side-lying or semi-reclined positions and gentle techniques tailored to your needs, we’ll support your changing body without pressure or strain. Sometimes, the greatest benefit is simply having space to rest and be looked after.
Trimester Check-In and Custom Setup
Every session begins with a conversation about how far along you are and how your body has been feeling. We’ll adjust the treatment and positioning to suit your comfort and stage — whether you’re early in your pregnancy or nearing the end.
Tailor massage to first, second, or third trimester needs
Ensure comfort with pillows, side-lying or semi-reclined setup
Discuss any concerns like nausea, pressure points, or swelling
Gentle, Supportive Massage
Using slow, flowing massage techniques, I’ll ease tension in common pregnancy hotspots — lower back, hips, shoulders, and legs. The pressure is always gentle, nurturing, and tuned to support both you and your baby’s wellbeing.
Reduce back pain, hip discomfort, and leg fatigue
Improve circulation and reduce swelling
Support better sleep and nervous system calm
No deep pressure or triggering points — only gentle support
Integration, Rest and Aftercare
After the massage, we’ll make space for a few moments of stillness before you return to your day. If you’re interested, I can offer tips for posture, relaxation, or how massage can support your body postnatally as well.
Allow time to transition slowly post-treatment
Encourage deep rest and nervous system regulation
Option for postural advice or home comfort tips
Build confidence in receiving care during a time of giving
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you might want to know before booking your massage — from health fund rebates to how to prepare for your session.
Do I need to know what kind of massage I want before I book?
Not at all. We'll talk through what's going on in your body and decide on the right approach together. You don't need to know the terms — just how you're feeling.
Can I claim through my private health insurance?
Yes. I’m a registered provider with most major health funds. You’ll receive an invoice after your session that you can submit to your fund for a rebate, depending on your level of cover.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Just wear comfortable clothes. You’ll be draped with towels during the massage and only the area being treated will be uncovered at any time.
I'm pregnant — is massage safe for me?
Absolutely. I offer safe, professional pregnancy massage with supportive positioning and techniques appropriate for each trimester.
Will it hurt?
Massage should never be painful. Some techniques may feel intense, but we’ll always work within your comfort zone. I’ll check in regularly and adjust as needed.
How long is a session?
Sessions typically run for 60 or 90 minutes, depending on what we’re working on. If you're unsure what to book, feel free to get in touch.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens! Just give as much notice as you can. I appreciate at least 24 hours’ notice so I can offer your spot to someone else.
Where is your clinic located?
I work from a private clinic in Ranelagh, Tasmania — just a few minutes from Huonville. The full address is provided when you book.
Do you offer gift vouchers?
Yes, absolutely. Massage makes a thoughtful, practical gift. You can contact me directly to organise a digital or physical voucher.
