Pregnancy massage is a specialised form of remedial massage therapy designed for the physical changes your body goes through during pregnancy. As your bump grows, your posture shifts, weight distributes differently, and muscles work harder to support the extra load, creating tension and discomfort across your back, hips, and legs.

At Aurum Physiotherapy in Casula, pregnancy massage is not generic relaxation treatment. It is clinical remedial massage adapted to your trimester, your symptoms, and your specific areas of discomfort, delivered by a qualified therapist who understands what your body is experiencing and how to support your comfort and recovery safely throughout your pregnancy.

What Is Pregnancy Massage?

Pregnancy massage is a remedial massage technique used by physiotherapists to address the musculoskeletal demands of pregnancy.

Rather than standard massage positioning, your therapist uses pregnancy-specific techniques and positioning, including:

Side-lying positioning with supportive pillows
Modified pressure appropriate to your trimester
Targeted treatment of pregnancy-related tension
Techniques adapted for safety during pregnancy
Avoidance of specific areas and methods
Treatment matched to your stage of pregnancy

This approach ensures pregnancy massage is safe, comfortable, and leads to better relief over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I start pregnancy massage?

Most therapists recommend waiting until after 12 weeks (second trimester) before beginning pregnancy massage. This is a precautionary approach based on higher miscarriage rates in the first trimester. From 13 weeks onwards, massage is considered safe for most uncomplicated pregnancies.

Can I lie on my stomach during pregnancy massage?

No. Side-lying positioning is used throughout the session with supportive pillows under your head, bump, and between your knees. This positioning is comfortable, safe, and allows proper treatment access to your back, hips, and legs.

Are there any pregnancy conditions where massage is not safe?

Yes. High-risk pregnancies, pre-eclampsia, placenta praevia, active blood clots, vaginal bleeding, or if you have been advised to limit physical activity require medical clearance before massage. Your therapist will discuss your pregnancy history before treatment to ensure massage is appropriate.
