Pregnancy Massage Online Course

Welcome to the Pregnancy Massage Online course — an experiential course designed to deepen your practical skills, clinical judgment, and adaptability when working with pregnant clients. This introductory unit sets the tone: we prioritize responsive, client-centered techniques that expand comfort and mobility rather than rigidly following prescribed sequences. Expect to learn principles and practices that allow you to safely and confidently adapt your work to each stage of pregnancy and each individual’s needs.

What you will gain

Solid foundation in pregnancy anatomy and physiology, with emphasis on musculoskeletal changes that affect flexibility, posture, and movement patterns.

Clinical reasoning skills to assess each client’s current function and determine appropriate, flexible interventions rather than one-size-fits-all routines.

Practical techniques for promoting safe mobility and comfort across trimesters, including supported positioning, gentle joint mobilizations, myofascial release approaches, and movement-based strategies.

Strategies for increasing flexibility through breath, guided movement, gentle stretching, and progressive loading while respecting tissue tolerance and hormonal influences.

Risk management and contraindication awareness specific to pregnancy, plus communication skills for obtaining informed consent and collaborating with healthcare providers.

Hands-on confidence gained through video demonstrations, case studies, and supervised practice tasks that emphasize modification and responsiveness.

Tools for creating individualized session plans that evolve across visits, focusing on functional outcomes like improved standing tolerance, pain reduction, ease of movement, and better sleep.
