Prenatal Massage

Our prenatal massage therapy is tailored to address the unique needs of expectant mothers. Our licensed massage therapists use a combination of techniques, including Swedish massage, acupressure, and mild stretching, to relax and soothe the body, treat and ease tensions, and prepare the body for childbirth.

Labor Enhancement Massage & Movement

Our labor enhancement massage and movement therapy aims to prepare the body for childbirth by releasing physical and emotional tension, promoting flexibility, and enhancing fetal positioning. Our certified practitioners use a range of techniques, including massage, movement, and positioning strategies, to support a healthy and empowering birth experience.

Postpartum Massage

After childbirth, our postpartum massage therapy helps to relax and rejuvenate the body, promoting healing and recovery. Our licensed massage therapists use a gentle and nurturing approach to ease physical and emotional discomfort, restore energy levels, and support the new mother's return to her prepregnancy self.

Body Ready Birth

Our Body Ready Birth program, designed by our founder Anne Heckheimer, is a comprehensive approach to preparing the body for childbirth and beyond. This program incorporates exercises, breathing techniques, and body awareness practices to promote relaxation, flexibility, and strength, empowering women to navigate the birthing process with confidence and ease.

Spinning Babies

Our Spinning Babies approach uses maternal physiology and fetal positioning to add comfort in pregnancy, ease in birth, and beyond. Our certified practitioners use gentle and non-invasive techniques to release physical and emotional tension, promoting optimal fetal positioning and overall well-being.

Partner Massage

Our partner massage program allows expectant fathers and partners to learn hands-on massage techniques to support their loved ones throughout pregnancy and childbirth. This empowering experience fosters a deeper connection and understanding between partners, promoting a more nurturing and supportive environment for the mother-to-be.
