Massage Doula: A Unique Addition to your Pregnancy Care Team.

Why hire a doula or a massage therapist when you can have both?

The evidence based benefits of hiring a doula are many, and well known. A massage therapist is a wonderful addition to any maternity care team! But hiring a professional who provides both of those services is a combination of the best of both worlds!

Build a Relationship with Your Massage Doula throughout Your Pregnancy

Sometimes it is a struggle to develop and maintain a personal relationship with your doula, especially if you hire them early in your pregnancy. Your doula will schedule a few prenatal visits to provide time to help you develop an understanding of how your doula will support you and your partner during labor and go over some prenatal education. Most of the time, your doula services only include 1 or 2 prenatal visits that are spread throughout your pregnancy.

Conversely, your massage therapist will spend a lot of time with you regularly before, during, and after your pregnancy. You can get a massage at anytime during your pregnancy, (providing that you are not high risk!) Seeing your massage doula regularly will help you be more comfortable and relaxed during labor.

Benefits of a Massage Doula

Your Massage doula is someone who has gone to school to gain an education in massage therapy and specializes in making people comfortable and reducing pain. Massage therapists are trained to assess and treat muscular discomfort that comes from posture, position, and exercise. Because labor is an incredible stress on your body, families who are planning a natural birth will find extra benefit from a massage doula.
