Postpartum Massage

Postpartum Massage: recovery from birth and aching “parenting muscles”.

More Information and Pricing

The postpartum period comes with physical and emotional challenges. We are here to aid in birth recovery, as well as the aches that come with the physical work of feeding and caring for an infant. While there is joy for many, we also know that hormones and situations (sleep deprivation, anyone?) can be a reason massage is extra nurturing and rejuvinating at this time. Our table set up allows extra space to take the pressure off of belly and breasts so you can receive care lying face down once again.

Need to feed or pump before you session? We are a breast-feeding friendly business, and can provide public or private space for you to do so, as well store pumped milk in our fridge until your session is complete. Let us know how we can help!

C-Section Scar Massage

Focused work to release scar tissue, imbeded in your massage session.

More Information and Pricing

Recovering from cesarean section–while actively caring for your newborn–can be a challenge. After 12 weeks (and clearance from your obstetrician) we can address your scar, reducing visual appearance and feelings of restriction. This often clears scar tissue and fascia, allowing the natural process of nerve regeneration to progress unimpeded. Many of our clients find this work both physically and emotionally beneficial. 

Note to older parents: we have seen great improvement in both mobility and appearnace in scars as old at 15-20 years. It is never too late!
