Postnatal Massage – Supporting Your Recovery After Birth
The journey of pregnancy and birth is incredible, but it also takes a toll on the body. After months of carrying a baby, followed by labor and delivery, your body needs time, rest, and gentle support to recover. At BodySpace Recovery Studio, our Postnatal Massage Therapy is designed to help new mothers heal, relax, and regain their strength.
While you may be eager to have a massage immediately after birth, we recommend waiting at least six weeks postpartum before booking a session. This ensures your body has time to recover, especially if you’ve had a C-section, medical intervention, or a complex birth. Once cleared by your doctor, postnatal massage can provide incredible benefits for both your body and mind.
Why Choose Postnatal Massage?
Your growing baby puts extra strain on your muscles, joints, and circulation. Our Pregnancy Massage is a safe and effective way to:
- Eases post-birth muscle tension – Relieves strain in the back, shoulders, and neck from nursing and carrying your baby
- Supports hormonal balance – Helps regulate postpartum mood changes and stress
- Improves circulation & recovery – Encourages healing by increasing blood flow and reducing swelling
- Promotes relaxation & better sleep – Helps new mothers reset and recharge
- A moment of self-care – Because taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of your baby
When Can You Have a Postnatal Massage?
Most new mothers can safely receive a Postnatal Massage after six weeks, once they have had their postnatal check-up and are cleared by their healthcare provider. If you’ve had a C-section or complicated birth, additional healing time may be required before massage is recommended.
What to Expect in a Postnatal Massage Session
Our therapists create a calm, supportive space where you can fully relax. Each session is tailored to your post-birth needs—whether you need gentle relaxation, muscle tension relief, or emotional support.
At BodySpace Recovery Studio, we know that motherhood is beautiful, but also exhausting. A Postnatal Massage is a wonderful way to care for yourself so that you can feel strong, balanced, and refreshed as you navigate life with your newborn.
