Thanks to the hard work of many professionals before you, people are finally moving out of the mindset of massage as a luxury. And thanks to clinically trained therapists like yourself, more and more are seeking massage for pain relief due to injury or chronic illness. There exists, however, a whole lot of middle ground that is routinely missed, namely, massage as a means for coping with the regular stuff in life. A bad day at work. The aches of aging. Or pregnancy--oh, pregnancy!

No serious athlete would consider competing without training, and no one - man or woman - should go into the pregnancy process without the same. After all, the structural changes a female body can undergo in 9 short months is simply amazing. And sometimes pretty uncomfortable! A good pregnancy massage class will teach you all about that. But a great massage class will consider how pregnancy affects both partners' bodies and minds. A great class considers both partners in all stages of pregnancy: pre-, peri-, and post-natal. I'm looking forward to a great class.
