Pregnancy Massage
There’s nothing like a soothing prenatal massage to take away the pains and strains of pregnancy.
Having a massage during pregnancy is completely safe, unless you have been advised to avoid this by your midwife or consultant. You can trust our skilled physiotherapists to take extra good care of you and tailor the treatment to your needs.
Unlike majority of the clinics, Bode Clinic offer the opportunity to have massage whilst lying on your front thanks to our uniquely designed pregnancy pillow which will keep your bump and baby completely safe during treatment. Let’s face it, nothing beats the treatment you receive facing down – and at the same time the pillow takes the pressure off your back and allows you to breathe and relax more easily. Honestly it is the best invention ever, you might want to take the pillow with you home
