I love working with expectant mothers using Prenatal Massage. I am a Certified DeepFeet Ashiatsu Bar Therapist. I also use Cupping, Scraping, and Pressure Point Therapy.

Massage therapy is a treatment that involves the manipulation of soft tissues in the body, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
Massage therapy can help reduce stress and anxiety, improve circulation, relieve pain and tension, and promote relaxation and overall well-being. People who receive regular massage often report improvement in both physical stress and range of motion.
Ashiatsu Massage is providing massage with the use of feet and bodyweight of the practitioner, to provide deep, consistent and broad pressure. Clients lie on a massage table, just like the hands-on massage you are more familiar with.
