Key Areas of Focus During Prenatal Massage
- Upper Body—During pregnancy, your uterus grows and takes up more physical activity. It also moves your other organs around a bit. To adapt, your upper body (ribs) needs to expand. When your upper body can move properly, there will be less inter-abdominal pressure. This will decrease the chances of diastasis recti and pelvic floor dysfunction.
- Core—A strong core is essential for a healthy pregnancy. It will help you carry your baby correctly, which in turn will help optimize your labor. It also minimizes low back pain and “sciatic” pain. A strong core will assist during the labor process and is also essential during recovery.
- Pelvis – Pelvic mobility is critical for carrying and delivering your baby. A pelvis with proper movement is a safe place for your baby to place her head as she prepares for birth. During your labor, a pelvis that moves correctly has many options as your baby navigates the pelvic inlet, mid-pelvis, and pelvic outlet.
- Pelvic Floor – The pelvic floor should be firm throughout a wide range of motion. A pelvic floor that has this yielding strength can carry the baby while still being able to let go during the delivery. A hypotonic (too tight) pelvic floor is often related to an anterior tilted pelvis and low back pain.
- Movement Patterns – During pregnancy and labor, the body must be able to choose from various positions to take the best care of your baby. Practicing these movements can help you feel better daily and give your body options when it needs them the most – during labor.
