Pre-Natal Massage

Prenatal massage is a gentle, therapeutic bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Research shows that it can help reduce anxiety, relieve muscle and joint pain, and improve labor outcomes and newborn health. Regular prenatal massages, such as bi-weekly sessions over five weeks, promote relaxation and help manage stress. The massage also stimulates soft tissues, reducing fluid buildup in swollen joints and aiding the body’s lymphatic system in removing excess tissue fluid.
Absolutely! Your safety and comfort are our top priorities at ADDITION+. Our therapists are not only certified but also trained beyond standard massage qualifications to meet your specific pregnancy and massage needs. We recommend discussing any concerns with your healthcare provider before your session so we can better tailor our services to you.
Women can start prenatal massage at any stage of pregnancy, though many prefer to begin after 12 weeks due to the higher risk of miscarriage in the first trimester. We’re happy to coordinate with your obstetrician before starting any therapeutic treatments to ensure your comfort and safety.

At ADDITION+, our prenatal massage therapists address different needs through various techniques, including:

  • Light stretching and positioning to ease discomfort
You’ll be comfortably positioned either on your side or in a semi-reclined position, supported by bolsters and pillows. These positions are chosen to prevent strain on the uterine ligaments, ensuring your safety and comfort. Feel free to discuss any concerns with us before your first appointment.
Yes! Regular massages during the third trimester can promote relaxation and improve pelvic alignment, leading to better labor outcomes. We can also offer tips and advice to help prepare your body as you approach labor.

Lactation

Lactation massage is a therapeutic technique designed to relieve breast discomfort, enhance milk flow, and support overall breast health for nursing mothers. It effectively addresses issues like engorgement, clogged ducts, and mastitis, while also promoting relaxation and comfort.
Lactation massage is perfect for:
  • Nursing mothers dealing with discomfort, engorgement, or clogged milk ducts.
  • Postpartum mothers aiming to optimise milk flow.
  • Mothers who are weaning and need relief from breast fullness.
It helps by:
  • Stimulating milk production and improving milk flow.
  • Reducing pain and discomfort caused by engorged breasts or blocked ducts.
  • Preventing or alleviating mastitis by promoting drainage and circulation.
  • Supporting hormonal balance and promoting relaxation.
  • Easing tension in the chest, shoulders, and back from nursing.
Yes! When performed by our trained professionals, lactation massage is both safe and effective for breastfeeding mothers. Our therapists use gentle, non-invasive techniques to ensure your comfort and safety.
Lactation massage is beneficial for:
  • Establishing milk flow in the early days of breastfeeding.
  • Relieving engorgement, clogged ducts, or tenderness.
  • Addressing periods of reduced milk supply.
  • Easing discomfort and supporting the transition after weaning.
At ADDITION+, our therapists use gentle, rhythmic techniques around the breasts and surrounding areas, including:
  • Soft hand movements to enhance circulation.
  • Targeted pressure to relieve blockages.
  • Lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling and discomfort.
Our goal is to provide relief, not cause discomfort. While some tenderness is normal if your breasts are engorged or have blocked ducts, we adjust our techniques to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the session.
A typical session includes:
  • A discussion about your breastfeeding experience and any concerns you may have.
  • Gentle massage techniques targeting the chest, breast tissue, and surrounding areas to improve milk flow and relieve discomfort.
  • Guidance on self-care and techniques you can use at home to sustain relief.
A typical lactation massage session lasts between 30 – 60 minutes, depending on your specific needs and concerns.
Yes, regular lactation massage can stimulate milk production by improving circulation and reducing clogged ducts. When combined with consistent breastfeeding or pumping, it supports your body in naturally producing more milk. Feel free to speak with our specialists for tips and advice tailored to mothers on this journey!

Several factors can affect your milk supply, such as stress, blocked ducts, ineffective latching, past breast surgeries, missed breastfeeding sessions, milk clumps, certain medications, and more.

What we can help with: We stimulate the mammary glands by targeting key pressure points, which helps clear milk residues, unblock ducts, and improve milk flow.

What to avoid: Waiting until your breasts are severely engorged to seek treatment. Regular maintenance sessions are highly recommended for the best outcomes.

Lactaiton massage is useful during weaning to relieve pain and discomfort from engorgement, facilitates lymphatic drainage and helps your body to transition after weaning.
The frequency depends on your needs. Some mothers benefit from one session to resolve an issue, while others may prefer regular sessions for ongoing support during breastfeeding.
  • Wear comfortable clothing and a nursing-friendly bra.
  • Breastfeed or pump before your appointment to reduce fullness.
  • Stay hydrated to support milk production and circulation.
While massage cannot guarantee prevention, it helps reduce the risk by clearing blocked milk ducts and enhancing milk supply. If you experience symptoms such as fever, redness, or severe pain, we strongly recommend consulting a doctor immediately.

No, lactation massage is also beneficial for mothers who are pumping, transitioning to weaning, or experiencing postpartum breast changes.

Our goal is to ensure you feel comfortable, confident, and supported for your breastfeeding journey. If you have any questions or need personalised care, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us!

TCM Jamu Postnatal Massage

At ADDITION+, our bespoke TCM Jamu postnatal massage blends the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with Jamu, an Indonesian herbal healing tradition, to support mothers on their postpartum recovery journey. Our postnatal massage services are designed to restore balance, improve circulation, and promote overall well-being. The treatment focuses on:
  • Restoring the mother’s Qi (vital energy).
  • Promoting uterine contraction and healing.
  • Relieving muscle tension.
  • Using herbal wraps and oils for detoxification.
This specialised massage can:

Our TCM Jamu postnatal massage typically includes:
  • A gentle body massage to enhance circulation and relieve tension.
  • Herbal oils with warming properties to detoxify and promote healing.
  • Belly wrapping (bengkung) with traditional cloth or binders to support abdominal recovery and improve posture.
No, the massage should feel gentle and soothing. Some areas, like the abdomen, may be slightly tender, especially if you’ve just given birth.

  • Support abdominal muscles and organs.
  • Improve posture.
  • Relieve lower back pain.

We recommend at least 5 – 10 sessions, depending on your body’s needs and recovery goals. Our therapists can guide you in creating a personalised plan.

While not a direct treatment, the massage promotes relaxation, improves sleep, and helps balance hormones, which can ease mild postpartum blues. For more severe symptoms, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional.
Guided by TCM principles, our approach focuses on restoring yin-yang balance, enhancing qi flow, and supporting the body’s natural healing processes. We may also incorporate specific acupressure points to address postpartum concerns. Our TCM Jamu postnatal massage is a nurturing ritual that honors your body’s recovery and renewal, helping you rediscover balance and strength.
