Prepare Your Body for a More Gentle Labor
Pre-Labor Acupuncture treatments begin at 37 weeks. Our pre-birth acupuncture treatments will help with
a smooth, less painful and easier labor.

Maya Abdominal Massage
Starting the 2nd trimester will help keep your uterus in proper position and ease many common pregnancy side-effects. At 6 weeks postpartum, we can begin to reposition your uterus and help to return your body, hormones and mind to a balanced state.

Pregnancy Massage
Experience a sense of calmness and peace with this relaxation massage for moms to be. Your body's changing, you're exhausted, and you just want to relax. Focuses on specific tight muscles to relieve neck, back, joint and feet pain caused by postural changes, muscle weakness, tension, extra weight and imbalance. Prenatal massage typically involves the mother resting on her side for comfort, with body pillows and special bolsters for added support. Pregnancy massage benefits both mother and developing child.
