Let us help you feel better during your pregnancy – visit us for a prenatal massage! Do you experience sciatic nerve pain? Looking for an experienced and certified massage therapist in Vacaville CA. Atma Wholistic Day Spa can help. Prenatal massages address the inflamed nerves by helping to release the tension on nearby muscles. Procedures help to stimulate soft tissues to reduce collection of fluids in swollen joints, which improves the removal of tissue waste, carried by the body’s lymph system. Studies indicate that prenatal massages performed during pregnancy can relieve muscle aches and joint pains, decrease symptoms of depression, reduce anxiety and improve labor outcomes and newborn health. Our massage therapy addresses different needs through varying methods, which aims to improve lymphatic and blood circulation and relax muscle tension through mild pressure applied to the muscle groups of the body. Prenatal massage is the recommended therapy technique during pregnancy because it addresses many common discomforts associated with the circulatory and skeletal changes brought on by hormone shifts during pregnancy. In women who received regular massages, hormones such as cortisol and norepinephrine were reduced and serotonin and dopamine levels were increased. Other potential benefits of prenatal massage:

Consult with your doctor before beginning any new therapeutic practice.
