Massage therapy · Kitchener–WaterlooPrenatal Massage

The clinic is set up with all the comforts to fit bodies of all shapes and sizes, including during pregnancy — many expecting parents worry about lying face-down, so positioning is built around a large foam bolster with space carved out for a pregnant belly, an additional four inches of foam padding on top of the table, and whatever other bolsters make you comfortable.

Not a diagnosis — for more information, contact me or another trusted healthcare provider.

Some aches and pains of pregnancy are unavoidable but can be eased. I start by looking at structural discomforts and putting a plan in place; once relieved, we move into relaxing massage to help settle and navigate the ups and downs of pregnancy hormones. Essential oils are optional, depending on scent sensitivity, and never compulsory — pregnancy-safe only.

My mother was a midwife for most of my life before retiring, so I grew up around — and heard far too much about — the ins and outs of pregnancy. I can't say that I have much lived experience of pregnancy as a 26-year-old man, but I am full of patience — a gentle ear and a calm, relaxing space, plus recommendations and connections to local prenatal exercise classes if you're looking for them. New parents are welcome back after delivery too.
