What to Expect at Your First Prenatal Massage

Supportive care for every stage of your pregnancy

A Calm, Customized Experience

Prenatal massage is safe in your second and third trimesters when provided by a trained practitioner. At my massage studio in Silverdale, I tailor every session to your body and your needs that day. Whether you're here for physical relief or emotional reset, the care is personal and thoughtful.

Comfortable Positioning with Careful Support

Your prenatal massage includes professional pregnancy bolstering to ensure safety and comfort throughout. You can choose between side-lying support with soft pillows and cushions or a specially designed face-down pregnancy pillow system. This option is available for most clients up to about 30 to 32 weeks, depending on your comfort and individual needs. Please mention your preferred setup when booking in the notes.

During your session, I adjust positioning gently and carefully. Time is balanced between lying on each side and supported backrest positions. This helps relieve pressure on your hips and back while keeping you stable and secure during your massage.

Gentle or Focused Pressure

Massage during pregnancy doesn’t have to be light or superficial. I stay within safe parameters, but I can still work deeply on areas like the back, hips, and feet. If something doesn’t feel right, you’re always welcome to speak up. This is your space.

Physical and Emotional Benefits

Many clients come in for lower back pain, hip tension, or swelling. Others are simply overwhelmed or tired. Massage helps relieve discomfort, improves circulation, and invites the nervous system to settle. It’s not just about the body. It’s about how you feel in it.

No Prep Needed

Come as you are. You’ll be fully draped throughout the session, and I’ll guide you through everything. Your comfort, privacy, and ease are always respected.

A Note from Me

You are carrying more than just a baby. You’re holding thoughts, emotions, and invisible labor too. Massage won’t fix everything, but it can help you feel supported, seen, and a little more like yourself.

I offer prenatal massage in Silverdale and work with clients from across Kitsap County, including Bremerton, Poulsbo, Port Orchard, and Seabeck. If your body’s asking for rest, I’d be honored to welcome you.
