Fertility Massage Package

3 sessions, approximately 1 hour per session     $160

The main objectives in fertility massage, like in any therapeutic massage, are to clear blockages, break up adhesions in the fascia, improve circulation of blood and oxygen, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation. The biggest difference between fertility massage and “regular” massage is the specialized focus on the abdominal region. This targeted therapy aims to reduce factors that may lead to infertility such as mental and physical stress, blockages in the fallopian tubes, hormonal imbalances, lack of blood flow to reproductive organs, the presence of fibroids/cysts, poor absorption of nutrients in the digestive tract, scar tissue/adhesions in the abdominopelvic region, misalignment of the uterus, and irregular menstruation. Some of the modalities used to perform fertility massage include abdominal massage, acupressure, energy work, reflexology, and castor oil pack application. Fertility massage should not be performed during menstruation, after recent abdominal surgery, if the client has an intrauterine device (IUD), or if the client has a fever. The best time to receive fertility massage is after menstruation but before ovulation (somewhere between the 5^th day and the 13^th day in a 28-day menstrual cycle). Fertility massage can also be helpful during the second and third trimester of pregnancy to maintain an optimal environment for the developing baby.

This fertility massage package includes 3 different sessions:

Your initial fertility session at Escapes Spa is solely a consultation with your Fertility Massage Specialist so that you may have an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about fertility massage, this also gives the therapist a chance to gather some of your health history and learn about your fertility and reproductive goals. The consultation includes topics such as nutrition, sleep patterns, exercise, herbal remedies, essential oil recommendations, and other helpful tips.

The second and third sessions are all about relieving stress and addressing other blockages that may be contributing to fertility issues.

Escapes Spa’s fertility massage services are intended to support the client in their goals of conception and/or improved reproductive health and do not replace advanced fertility treatments or assisted reproductive technologies. Due to the complexities of infertility, Escapes Spa makes no guarantees that fertility massage will result in pregnancy or that it will reduce any reproductive deficiencies.
