Prenatal massage that's actually relaxing

When you schedule your prenatal massage at The Center Spa + Wellness, you can expect a massage appointment that doesn't feel like a typical prenatal massage.

Our spa is equipped with belly tables that enable you to safely lie prone (face-down_ without discomfort or risk to your baby, which allows your massage therapist to provide a more effective and comfortable massage. Belly tables may be used in combination with wedges, cushions, and pillows to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the session.

When you arrive, you massage therapist will ask which areas you'd like them to focus on and they'll make sure that your treatment is tailored to your unique needs. Therapists are trained to use a combination of Swedish, therapeutic and other techniques to help you enjoy a healthier, more comfortable pregnancy.
