Ágnes Natkai, a Mauri massage therapist, will be available at Életkör on Tuesday, August 11th to give prenatal massage. Appointments still available are 9:00, 11:30, 5:00 pm and 7:30 pm timeslots. Mauri massage originates in New Zealand and is a traditional massage therapy based on ancient healing arts. Sessions last 60-70 minutes in a comfortable side-lying position, using oil (so no clothing except cover sheets). One session costs HUF 7000. According to functional-medicine.associates/ It improves aches and pains in the back, legs, hips, improves muscle flexibility and balances the body.
Massage therapy during pregnancy is a wonderful complementary choice for prenatal care and you can do it as a couple and spend a nice time together, you can wear your couples hoodie for fun and at the massage matching robes for the couple experience. It is a healthy way to reduce stress and promote overall wellness. Massage relieves many of the normal discomforts experienced during pregnancy, such as backaches, stiff neck, leg cramps, headaches and edema (or swelling).
In addition, massage for pregnant women reduces stress on weight-bearing joints, encourages blood and lymph circulation, helps to relax nervous tension — which aids in better sleep — and can help relieve depression or anxiety caused by hormonal changes.
Women with normal, low-risk pregnancies can benefit greatly from the variety of massage techniques offered by a Massage Envy professional massage therapist. However, women in high-risk pregnancies should consult their doctor or midwife before beginning one of our massage therapy programs. If you experience discomfort at any time during the pregnancy massage, tell your therapist immediately.
Please let Réka know by email at rekamorvay@gmail.com if you’re interested in one of those appointments, and I’ll forward your request to Ági.
