Prenatal Massage
Prenatal Massage Therapy Specialists in Calgary
We love working with our prenatal patients at the clinic because we become part of their journey. Whether it’s the 1st baby or 3rd, each experience is different and we learn so much.
Our clinic offers a non-judgmental space where all birthing decisions are equally supported. We have access to different resources should there be inquiries, as well, we love to integrate different modalities within the clinic should we see a need to add or change a prenatal therapy-always keeping the patient’s best interest as our highest regard.

During a Pregnancy Massage session, the expecting mother’s comfort is the very important. Additional bolstering, blankets, and heat pads may be used to ensure that the client is able to relax and find comfort on the massage table. This means laying on one side or the other, but occasionally a mother will be able to find comfort on either her stomach or her back using bolsters and pillows. We believe in the absolute comfort and safety of our patients.
