Comfort and relief, tailored for two
Your body is doing something incredible, but all those changes can bring aches, swelling and restlessness along the way.
A pregnancy massage is a specialist treatment designed to help you feel more comfortable, with gentle, flowing strokes to ease tension, relieve lower back pain and support better sleep.
Eases pregnancy aches and pains
Targets tension in the lower back, hips and legs to help relieve the strain of a growing bump.
Reduces swelling and improves circulation
Gentle pressure supports lymphatic drainage and blood flow, helping ease puffiness in hands, feet and ankles.
Supports overall wellbeing
A chance to switch off, recharge and focus on yourself before the baby arrives.
Your pregnancy pro will start with a quick consultation, making sure the treatment is tailored to you.
During your massage, you’ll lay safely on your side with pillows for support. Your pro will use light, flowing strokes and kneading techniques to help release tension, with extra care given to the lower back, hips and legs – common areas of strain during pregnancy.
Your bump won’t be massaged, and no deep pressure will be used, just gentle techniques designed for relaxation and relief.
Need relief post-birth? Try our postnatal massage, designed to help new mums recover and unwind five weeks after giving birth.

Learn more about pregnancy massage
A pregnancy massage (also called a prenatal massage) is a specialist full-body treatment designed for mums-to-be in their second trimester onwards. It’s designed to ease tension, reduce swelling and help you relax using safe, gentle techniques to support your changing body.
No, Urban pregnancy massage therapists can only treat pregnant people who have completed the first trimester.
No, the back does get a lot of focus – because that’s often where tension builds up – but your pro will also work on your legs, arms, neck and head.
Your bump won’t be massaged, and if you’d like your therapist to avoid certain areas, just let them know.
Yes, when performed by a trained prenatal massage therapist, it’s safe and beneficial from the second trimester (12 weeks) onwards.
Urban pros that offer a prenatal massage are specially trained in and will always adapt their techniques to keep you and your baby comfortable.
This treatment isn’t suitable if:
You’re in your first trimester
You have a high-risk pregnancy (e.g. preeclampsia, placenta previa)
You’re experiencing bleeding, cramping or clotting issues
If unsure, check with your doctor first.
For the massage table (that your therapist will bring) you’ll need about 2x3m of floor space. That’s about the size of a yoga mat, with enough space to walk around the edge.
Your mobile massage therapist will bring a portable massage table and oils for your treatment. You'll just need to grab three towels/blankets for the massage table, as well as a pillow or two to support you.
