The Pregnancy Massage is specifically adapted to the physical changes of pregnancy: a side-lying position with support cushions, gentle pressure and techniques that are safe for you and your baby. At Harmony Sanctuary® we offer it from the second trimester at our centre in the heart of Málaga.
🤰 What is pregnancy massage?
During pregnancy the body goes through profound changes: weight gain, fluid retention, lower-back strain and hormonal changes. A conventional massage is not suitable. Pregnancy massage uses a side-lying position with support cushions that avoids pressure on the abdomen and the vena cava, gentle drainage and muscle-relief techniques, and neutral oils without contraindicated essential oils. We offer it from the second trimester (week 14) until the last days before birth.
✨ Benefits of pregnancy massage
- Eases lower-back and hip pain caused by weight gain.
- Reduces oedema and fluid retention in the legs and ankles.
- Improves sleep quality at a difficult stage.
- Reduces anxiety and encourages bonding with your baby.
- Eases neck tension caused by postural changes.
- Prepares the body for childbirth by releasing built-up tension.
👤 Who is it for?
- Pregnant women from the second trimester (week 14).
- Women with lower-back pain or sciatica caused by pregnancy.
- Anyone suffering from oedema in the legs, ankles or hands.
- Pregnant women with increasing insomnia or anxiety.
- As a gift for a mum-to-be (always after medical approval).
🌿 What the session is like at Harmony Sanctuary®
Before we start, we ask you to confirm that your gynaecologist or midwife approves the massage (a standard safety formality). We help you lie on your side with cushions under your head and bump, between your knees and under your feet. This position is comfortable for you and safe for your baby.
We use a neutral vegetable oil without strong essential oils. We work on the whole back, neck, arms, legs with gentle drainage, glutes and hips. We switch sides halfway through the session. Duration 60 or 90 minutes. Afterwards, herbal tea and a longer rest. You leave at your own pace.

❓ Frequently asked questions
From which week can I have it?
From week 14 (second trimester). In the first trimester we recommend waiting, for safety reasons.
Do I need my gynaecologist’s approval?
Yes, it is standard protocol. A verbal approval or a note is enough. In high-risk pregnancies, always check with your medical team first.
Is it safe right up to the end of pregnancy?
Yes, until the last days before birth. The side-lying position with cushions makes it comfortable.
Can I have it if I have oedema?
Yes, it is especially recommended. We combine gentle leg drainage with lower-back relief.
And after giving birth?
After the postpartum period (8 weeks) you can have conventional massage again. We also offer postpartum lymphatic drainage if you need it.
