Pregnancy discomfort

Pregnancy Can Create a Lot of Muscular Discomfort

As your pregnancy progresses, your body has to adapt to a growing baby and changing weight distribution.

That can affect the way you stand, walk, sit and sleep. Your posture changes, your center of gravity changes, and different muscles may have to work harder than they normally would.

That is one reason pregnant clients may experience things such as:

Low back discomfort

Sciatic-type discomfort

Hip and gluteal tension

Neck and shoulder tension

Achy or tired feet

Leg discomfort

General muscular fatigue

Of course, not every symptom during pregnancy is muscular in nature, and massage isn't a substitute for medical evaluation. But when discomfort is related to muscular tension and the client is an appropriate candidate for massage, therapeutic bodywork can be a valuable part of her self-care.
