  1. Reduces Stress and Anxiety

    • Both massage and meditation are proven to reduce cortisol levels (stress hormone) in the body. Studies show that massage therapy can reduce cortisol levels by up to 31%, while meditation can lower stress and anxiety in 60% of participants in mindfulness studies.


  2. Relieves Chronic Pain

    • Massage therapy has been shown to reduce lower back pain by 36% and improve mobility in people with chronic conditions. Meditation techniques, such as mindfulness stimulates neuroplasticity to over-ride negative feedback loops and shrink pain receptors.


  3. Promotes Longevity

    Both practices combined decrease the body's inflammatory response, reduce oxidative stress, and improve overall heart health lowering mortality rates by 23%. While massage promotes overall body balance, contributing to a longer and healthier life, combining both massage and meditation has proven to have overwhelming benefits to both mental and physical health.


  1. Increased Energy Levels and Reduced Fatigue

    A study published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics & Gynecology found that pregnant women who received regular massage therapy reported significant reductions in physical discomfort and fatigue levels.


  1. Reduced Swelling and Fluid Retention

Pregnancy massage, as well as releasing muscular tension, also uses lymphatic drainage techniques to facilitate the body's natural lymphatic cycle. It helps clear bodily toxins and improve the bodies homeostasis.
