Amatsu therapy is a highly effective soft tissue treatment that can offer relief from a number of the physical symptoms of pregnancy:

• Headaches
• Migraines
• Light-headedness
• Heartburn
• Morning sickness/Nausea
• Fatigue/Exhaustion
• Constipation
• Bloating
• Back pain
• Cramps
• Swelling
• Indigestion

The additional weight that is carried throughout pregnancy can lead to back pain, in particular lower back pain and diminished energy. Amatsu therapy works to help alleviate these symptoms through massage, mobilisation and repatterning of soft tissue. A relaxed, balanced body also promotes energy levels, restful sleep and effective lymphatic drainage (reduced swelling).

Amatsu therapy treatments can also be beneficial to your body in the months following the birth of your baby. The therapy can help aid your body's smooth return to its pre-pregnancy position.
The more fluid the body's return to its pre-pregnancy state the better the potential to regain your muscle strength and control e.g. pelvic floor muscles.
