If you’re looking for a spa in Chicago that offers top-notch prenatal massages, look no further. lillieAnn’s has tons of experience with prenatal massages and they’re a great way to offer relief. These massages make a great present for yourself, your spouse or a loved one.
The Logistics
How often you receive a prenatal massage is up to you. If you’re using them as an integral part of your pregnancy, we suggest once a month during your first trimester and twice a month during your second and third trimesters.
It’s a misconception that your feet shouldn’t be massaged during pregnancy. Your feet need relief from joint pressure and excessive swelling. Don’t worry, we will avoid the acupressure points on your feet that help bring on contractions.
If you’re on bedrest, we can accommodate that as well. Our prenatal massage professionals will perform a modified massage with light pressure on your extremities and we won’t massage your abdomen. As always, if you’re on bedrest, it’s always best to consult your doctor before scheduling a massage.
Is It Safe?
Yes! Your body will secrete “feel good” hormones during the massage, which is great for both you and your baby. We also steer away from using essential oils as we don’t want to add any more chemicals into the mix.
We are a certified prenatal spa in Chicago and we want to help you feel at ease during your pregnancy journey. Contact our spa today to set up your next prenatal massage!
