Congratulations on your 20 years as a massage therapist !!!! What a wonderful career! Thank you so much for your beautiful words!!! From one therapist to another ❤️🤗🙏
Thank you- concurrently in acupuncture school now, which is amazing! And you have 35+ years of massage?! Fingers crossed I can still be practicing in 15-20++ years too. Bowing to you & thanking you.❤️❤️❤️
I am preparing for my very first prenatal massage this Saturday. I’ve been a licensed massage therapist for just under a year now & I am loving my new career!!!! So very grateful to have chosen this path, but I am nervous about my first actually pregnant client & this video is really helping boost my confidence!!!! Thank you so much! You officially have a new subscriber & follower 🙏
Congratulations on your career choice! I love what I do too. 35 years and counting. You will do great tomorrow! Anything you can do for a mommy to be will be appreciated! She will feel good after you finish! Your intention is the best ingredient 🤗👍🏼
Hi ma'am from your long bit expertise in this armotherapy where do you find the Word of Ease And Sufficient income in the form of having a Good Life ? Can we have a glimpse about the Income ?
Going for my first massage today at 31 weeks and wanted to know what to expect. This was a very relaxing video to watch. I was drifting off to sleep watching it. What a wonderful therapist
Absolutely loving your aura, ma’am! I can tell you love your profession and you really put lots of effort into doing this massage! Very nice! You have to be a philanthropist to dedicate your lifetime to easing other people’s pains and aches. May you be blessed with the best health yourself!
Britney congratulations on your beautiful pregnancy. That how far the model is too! I’m sure your having aches & pains too. It’s wonderful when I hear people relax just by watching! I hope you receive a massage too. Best of luck to you & baby.
I am so happy to find this video, I am a massage therapy student who wants to specialize in prenatal massage and infant massage. This video was super detail and straight to the point. Thank you! I wish I got a massage from you when I was pregnant lol !
Mariah Lewis We need more therapist like you! I know that taking continued classes isn’t easy so the videos do help. Congrats on going through the massage therapy program! I know it takes a lot of work & commitment! I will appreciate it if you can share the videos with your classmates & help spread the word. Thank you and create a great day!
That’s awesome 👏🏽 I’m a Massage Therapy Student interested in the same niche and also undergoing Doula training. Congrats to you 🎉 and 4 years later how did everything work out with the Prenatal and Baby Massage?
Excellent video! I had been an MT for 7 years before I became a nurse, but hardly ever did prenatals. Now my wife is pregnant and this served as a great brush-up, thank you!
Congratulations on your pregnancy! How exciting to have a baby! Babies are such a blessing! I’m sure all the pressure from the baby growing is making your back & ribs sore! I hope you have someone to give you a massage! Best of wishes for you and your baby 🤗❤️🙏
Your presence is very calm and I really appreciate that. I will be 40 weeks pregnant with my first as of tomorrow, and having my first ever massage today. I was nervous what to expect but this video makes me feel much more comfortable. I should have started my pre-natal massage journey sooner!
Lara Tan no I don’t have a video specifically about that. You need to make sure they are cleared from their doctor. Once you have a dr. Ok you can work on them. There is many different types of cervical or lumbar issues everything from stenosis, herniated or slipped disk etc so my suggestion is to take some medical massage training or NMT. This will help you out as to how to work these areas. For the most part if the injuries are a few yrs old you can work the soft tissue without extreme stretching. I’m sorry this is so vague however there’s so much information it’s difficult to teach it in 1 video or 1 conversation. I hope this helps you.
I appreciate how detailed you are and the constant reciting of the major and minor muscles, I’m studying/preparing to go to massage school myself and watching your videos not only makes me more excited but they have helped me with my confidence so much as I practice at home on family & friends. Love, love your content one of the best educators I’ve found on here.
I am so excited for you Nalani. Massage school is a wonderful experience! I can tell you’re going to be good because you’re already practicing & studying! What state are you in? Best of wishes for you 🤗❤️
@@MassageTherapeutics915 I’ll be obtaining my MBLEX in D.C., speaking it into existence now! Getting those words of encouragement mean so much to me, I definitely admire your techniques and passion for this work, you’re an exceptional healer/educator.🌹

Awesome techniques! You can tell you really know your stuff. I am currently 31 weeks along with my first baby and literally dreaming about a massage like this 😭 I know I’m in the home stretch now but I am officially starting to feel exhausted lol
Congratulations on your pregnancy! How exciting to be having your first baby! Just think you are creating life! Of course that can be exhausting! Take good care of yourself and best of wishes for you and your baby! Blessings 🙏🤗❤️
Very thorough, and I loved how you put Erica at ease, questioning the pressure level, and the do's and dont's in specific areas. I'm a former massage practitioner, and you brought me back to the good memories of pampering massage clients. This video will be shared with my son, who is finishing up his nursing degree, and his wife, expecting their first child, and my first grandchild. Thanks for being very informative on the anatomy, as well as your kindness to share this. God bless you!
First: congratulations on your expecting your first grand baby! Second: I really appreciate your feedback and your attention to detail! Third: this world needs more caring, sensitive and kind people like yourself! Fourth: I’m sure your clients miss you because you sound like a marvelous therapist! So out of curiosity I would like to know how come you’re a “former” therapist? Many blessings to you and your family ❤️🤗🎄
27weeks preg, watching this with my husband so he can try it😍. My sacroiliac joint is giving me so much pain at night. Your video is so satisfying and relaxing ! Thank you!
Congratulations Hana on your pregnancy! How exciting you’re creating new life! I can imagine how your SI joints hurt. I hope your husband can help you find some relief. You’ll need to tip him good after the massage if he does a good job 🤗😊. Best of wishes for you and the baby. Keep us posted!

I'm scheduled to do my first pregnancy massage since I got my license 3 years back. I was a bit nervous, but this is a great refresher. Even picked up a few new techniques I will most definitely incorporate into my massages. Thank you for your video. 😊
Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your massage! I’m sure it will be great because you are doing research before the massage. That shows your character & dedication as a massage therapist! Congrats
I’m sorry to hear everything is booked! It’s good for massage business to be booked. Did you ask to be put on a waiting list? They have cancelations sometimes. Hope you get one soon! Thanks for the comment
That is music to my ears and joy in my heart!!!! I love helping students & massage therapist became the best version of themselves! You got it!!! Congratulations on having the initiative to continue learning and being a good therapist!!! Stay healthy and strong
wow. Bless you. I just finished my holistic massage course and want to major in prenatal massage and baby massage. Thank you for your videos extremely helpful.
Congratulations on knowing exactly what you want to do. This genre will greatly appreciate you for it. We need more good therapist in this field. Thank you for your feedback
What an excellent video. I love this and I have been a MT for the last 19 years. Love following your videos. I still always learn new techniques. Thank you!
Your videos have been indispensable to me as a new therapist! I hear your voice in my head while giving massage, lol. Thank you for sharing your clarity, wisdom, expertise and humor. I was surprised to see Erica side-lying on the wedge; it doesn't seem comfortable and it puts her spine at an angle to her hips. I'm wondering if you would please elaborate on the benefit of choosing side-lying wedge support for upper body vs side-lying cervical support w a hugging pillow? Thank you so much
Vivian I truly appreciate your compliment! It makes me happy to know you feel comfortable to ask questions. The main reason for using the wedge was to keep her inclined in the supine position. It wasn’t uncomfortable on the sideline position because she wasn’t that big however you brought up a good point! That it compromised her spinal column. I could have taken it off & done exactly what you described just having her hug a pillow. I always go by how the client feel more comfortable so either way is correct. If you don’t have to work too deep & client is comfortable the wedge on sideline is ok. Thanks for the question ❤️🤗
@@madhumitsyarts1624 I do my best to reply to everyone. I really appreciate the feedback and the time people take to leave a comment. My videos are made for you! People from all over the world that take the time to help others & make this a better place. 🤗❤️
I’ve always been interested in Prenatal and always would find myself watching Childbirth videos! I originally wanted to do Labor and Delivery but now I’m interested in Prenatal Massage and Doula. I’m a Massage Therapist student who plans on starting an Prenatal Massage and Doula Practice. I’ve always wanted to become a Doula and MidWife. I’ll be finished both the Doula Training and my Massage Therapy at the same time! And then off to MidWife education! Thanks so much for sharing this, it really means the world to me! ❤
What a great combination! I’ve had a few Doula’s graduate from our massage therapy program & they have gone on to do great things!!! Congrats on graduating from both at the same time! I know that’s not easy! Best of wishes for you & thanks for the comment!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 Thanks so much. I am so happy for your graduates. That’s so refreshing to hear! Best wishes to you as well. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much for your kind words and support! Yes I have a very good videographer that makes the videos good quality. You can definitely tell the difference between the videos I do from the edited ones lol 😂
Very nice video. This was super informative and a high quality video. Thank you for making such a high quality massage video from one massage therapist to another. 🙏🏻❤
Thank you for the compliment! Yes this video is one of the best because the videographer I had at the time did an amazing job!!!! You can tell the difference of when I record on my own or when I have a videographer lol 😆
Thank you for all your videos! 🙏🙏🙏❤ You're a kind of person who's sreading kindness and your experience with such a generosity ! I really appreciate you and your work. 🙏❤ Wish you all the best🍀 and to continue to bring this love and kindness to people! Love from France ❤🙏
Yulia Barskaia I truly appreciate your beautiful comment! It is people like yourself that make this journey worth it. It’s not always easy since creating the videos takes patience, time, the right people and $$. Thank you for your positive feedback ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You have great and very informative videos on top of being relaxing! Sp interesting all the info about your body during pregnancy, alot of that I did not know. Makes you realize just how amazing the human body really is. I really like how you draw the muscle groups onto people so we get a good idea of how muscles are laid out and how to work them. Glad I found your channel 🙂 thanks for another good one!
Thank you Lori for all your lovely comments. I’m glad you found me too & if you could please help me share the videos I would greatly appreciate it. With this lockdown I need to grow my channel! I can’t even make videos! I will continue as soon as it’s safe in the mean time I’m glad you’re enjoying them. Stay healthy and strong
Yes that’s perfectly said. We remember something we haven’t done in a while or learn something new. That’s exactly how I feel about learning too! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! 🤗❤️
Thank you for all your video's! They are so informative and helpful. I have a question on this one. Is there a reason why you didn't put a bolster under her knee's?
Cheryl Weaver yes! Because I forgot it! We went to record at a friends house & I packed everything except the bolster & my black pants! Thus the reason I look totally silly wearing white pants! I also only bolster when people have low back pain. Thanks for your question
sam nsadha meyer I will let her know you appreciate her. It’s difficult to get someone to volunteer for the whole world to see so yes I’m very grateful to all my models! Her baby is already 6 months old! Thank you for the blessings
Massage Therapeutics that is so crazy!! I came across your amazing videos not that long ago and I just realized you live in El Paso!?? I live on the westside of El Paso! I would love to receive a massage from you!! Your hand movements are just natural, almost like they have a mind of their own!! So good!
I’m sorry to hear that you can’t book a massage. Where do you live? Maybe you can get your partner to give you a light massage just to release some tension & get your blood flowing! Stay healthy and strong 🤗
Hanna Otway you are welcome! I’m glad you found it helpful. I do like to simplify & make it easy for students to learn. Check out my other videos they may be helpful to you too! Pass it on & thank you!
Awawaw she must have been a good teacher to make an impact on you! I hope you let her know one day. Hopefully after all this Covid-19 slows down you can schedule a massage! My best wishes for you. Stay healthy and strong ❤️🤗
Amazing massage. I am 26 weeks pregnant and unfortunately I can’t have a massage due to the coronavirus. All salons are closed 😢 thank you for your work 😍
Congratulations on your pregnancy! I’m sorry you can’t get a massage during this time. It is all strange and different for now. I hope you & baby stay healthy and strong 🤗❤️

24 weeks and definitely need a massage. i’ve always had back problems but now it’s worse 😩 i would look forward to the back massage, leg and feet massage.
Congratulations on your pregnancy! Yes I know how difficult it is to have back problems and then add carrying a growing baby inside! Maybe you can get a relative just to rub your feet & a little on your back for now. Best thing is to get off your feet a couple of times a day and raise them. Best of wishes for you and the baby!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 thank you so much! pregnancy is no joke haha, but it’s amazing we are able to create life. i’ll definitely ask my husband to watch your video so he can help with that and will do what you recommended! your massages look like they’re the best. if only you were located in NC!

Thanks for this great demonstration. Every class I've been to left me feeling like the instructor was inexperienced.
Antronette Williams wow this is great comment. Thank you too for taking the time to leave one ❤️🤗🤗
I love watching this !! Thenks so much the the classes am a therapist and i keep learning sure!
irine riziki you are very welcome! I’m happy that you continue to learn & grow! I’m the same way because I love to learn new things. 🤗
I'm 25 weeks and watching this completely relaxed me! I'm booked in for a massage this week, can't wait! Xx
Congratulations on your pregnancy and upcoming massage!! Enjoy 😊
Your videos have been indispensable to me as a new therapist! I hear your voice in my head while giving massage, lol. Thank you for sharing your clarity, wisdom, expertise and humor. I was surprised to see Erica side-lying on the wedge; it doesn't seem comfortable and it puts her spine at an angle to her hips. I'm wondering if you would please elaborate on the benefit of choosing side-lying wedge support for upper body vs side-lying cervical support w a hugging pillow? Thank you so much
Vivian I truly appreciate your compliment! It makes me happy to know you feel comfortable to ask questions. The main reason for using the wedge was to keep her inclined in the supine position. It wasn’t uncomfortable on the sideline position because she wasn’t that big however you brought up a good point! That it compromised her spinal column. I could have taken it off & done exactly what you described just having her hug a pillow. I always go by how the client feel more comfortable so either way is correct. If you don’t have to work too deep & client is comfortable the wedge on sideline is ok. Thanks for the question ❤️🤗
I was on the verge of falling asleep myself. Looks so relaxing.
That’s great! I appreciate the support and feedback
Starting maternity massage at school this week, thank you for this great video!
You're so welcome! How exciting to be learning this modality!!! Please come back and share some of what you learned. Best of wishes.
Such a beautiful mama! I hope she and baby are well ❤️❤️

I’ve always been interested in Prenatal and always would find myself watching Childbirth videos! I originally wanted to do Labor and Delivery but now I’m interested in Prenatal Massage and Doula. I’m a Massage Therapist student who plans on starting an Prenatal Massage and Doula Practice. I’ve always wanted to become a Doula and MidWife. I’ll be finished both the Doula Training and my Massage Therapy at the same time! And then off to MidWife education! Thanks so much for sharing this, it really means the world to me! ❤
What a great combination! I’ve had a few Doula’s graduate from our massage therapy program & they have gone on to do great things!!! Congrats on graduating from both at the same time! I know that’s not easy! Best of wishes for you & thanks for the comment!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 Thanks so much. I am so happy for your graduates. That’s so refreshing to hear! Best wishes to you as well. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️
@@Lifewithqueenro thank you for the blessings
You always have high quality content, and are my go-to for tips in my own practice. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much for your kind words and support! Yes I have a very good videographer that makes the videos good quality. You can definitely tell the difference between the videos I do from the edited ones lol 😂
Very nice video. This was super informative and a high quality video. Thank you for making such a high quality massage video from one massage therapist to another. 🙏🏻❤
Thank you for the compliment! Yes this video is one of the best because the videographer I had at the time did an amazing job!!!! You can tell the difference of when I record on my own or when I have a videographer lol 😆
Thank you for all your videos! 🙏🙏🙏❤
You're a kind of person who's sreading kindness and your experience with such a generosity ! I really appreciate you and your work. 🙏❤ Wish you all the best🍀 and to continue to bring this love and kindness to people! Love from France ❤🙏
Yulia Barskaia I truly appreciate your beautiful comment! It is people like yourself that make this journey worth it. It’s not always easy since creating the videos takes patience, time, the right people and $$. Thank you for your positive feedback ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This was amazing and relaxing to watch🤗🤗🤗...This is why I am studying this so I can be a help for mommies.
Good for you! We need more massage therapist that specializes in prenatal massage! Best of wishes for you
I would please like to see you do a video if you use the special pregnancy massage pillows where the client can lay on their stomach.
You have great and very informative videos on top of being relaxing! Sp interesting all the info about your body during pregnancy, alot of that I did not know. Makes you realize just how amazing the human body really is. I really like how you draw the muscle groups onto people so we get a good idea of how muscles are laid out and how to work them. Glad I found your channel 🙂 thanks for another good one!
Thank you Lori for all your lovely comments. I’m glad you found me too & if you could please help me share the videos I would greatly appreciate it. With this lockdown I need to grow my channel! I can’t even make videos! I will continue as soon as it’s safe in the mean time I’m glad you’re enjoying them. Stay healthy and strong
@@MassageTherapeutics915 thank you and will do!
I'm so grateful to find this. Very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to create this and for being so detailed!
And I’m very grateful that you took the time to leave a very positive compliment! Create a great day
Thank you again so much Maria you have cover so much on your videos we all appreciate it big hug from me

This one of the best in depth video of prenatal. Thank you
I truly appreciate your compliment and feedback 🤗❤️🙏
Just asked my bf for a massage when he get home. Can’t wait plus I scheduled an appointment for next Thursday. 23 weeks now 🥰
Congratulations! On both booking an appointment and your pregnancy 🤗
OMG- just watching this relaxed me...
I’m so happy to read that!
Looking at her massaging the pregnant lady like a mom caring for her daughter❤
Your words are so kind!!!! Thank you very much
I am soooo blest to have you as my teacher !!!!
Healing Synergy By Nora Awaw and I am blessed to have you as my student. You guys inspire me & keep me motivated! You’re all awesome!
I love your stuff.
I always learn something or am reminded of what I learned in school.
Thank you!
Yes that’s perfectly said. We remember something we haven’t done in a while or learn something new. That’s exactly how I feel about learning too! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! 🤗❤️
Thank you for all your video's! They are so informative and helpful. I have a question on this one. Is there a reason why you didn't put a bolster under her knee's?
Cheryl Weaver yes! Because I forgot it! We went to record at a friends house & I packed everything except the bolster & my black pants! Thus the reason I look totally silly wearing white pants! I also only bolster when people have low back pain. Thanks for your question
@@MassageTherapeutics915 I figured you forgot the bolster because I do that myself! 😊 I thought maybe there was something I didn't know.
Cheryl Weaver I do the same thinking that there’s something new that I don’t know or understand. Sometimes it’s just because we are human!
Thanks Maria, n thanks to the lady for her time for us.
Blessings
sam nsadha meyer I will let her know you appreciate her. It’s difficult to get someone to volunteer for the whole world to see so yes I’m very grateful to all my models! Her baby is already 6 months old! Thank you for the blessings
Felt really relaxed by just watching 😍
I’m so glad to hear that! The venue was very relaxing too. Are you pregnant? I hope you are healthy and strong 🤗❤️
I really appreciate your videos it’s really helpful thank you 🙏
You're so welcome! Glad to help 🤗
I wish I could be one of the volunteers:)
Lidia Juarez you could be if you’re near the El Paso Area?
Massage Therapeutics that is so crazy!! I came across your amazing videos not that long ago and I just realized you live in El Paso!?? I live on the westside of El Paso! I would love to receive a massage from you!! Your hand movements are just natural, almost like they have a mind of their own!! So good!
Since I dont have the money for a prenatal massage.. I’ll just enjoy watching this and fall asleep...
I’m sorry to hear that you can’t book a massage. Where do you live? Maybe you can get your partner to give you a light massage just to release some tension & get your blood flowing! Stay healthy and strong 🤗
I love your videos I learned to much,you’re skills are amazing ❤
Thank you so much! I appreciate your feedback!!!
Super helpful and easy to understand! Thanks!
Hanna Otway you are welcome! I’m glad you found it helpful. I do like to simplify & make it easy for students to learn. Check out my other videos they may be helpful to you too! Pass it on & thank you!
This Mama is just so sweet😘
She is! Baby is already a year old!
30 weeks. Wishing this was me too :( at least we can relax by watching a video if we can’t really afford a massage right now
I’m so glad to hear it helped you relax just by watching it! You only have 10 weeks to go! Good luck with your baby & congratulations 🤗❤️🙏

I looove her coquí tattoo🐸💓! Preparing for a maternity massage on my coworker today :)
Good luck!!! Hope it goes smoothly!!!
I love your videos, it awesome that you shared all this knowledge, I would like to know if you have any postpartum video? Thank you.
I appreciate your comment! No I don’t have a postpartum video! But you just gave me a great idea! Thanks
I miss doing prenatals at an incline. I need to get a wedge to replace the incline table I used to have. At the moment I have to do fully sidelying.
I really miss being massaged by a professional 😭😭😭
You made me remember my teacher way back high school💖
Awawaw she must have been a good teacher to make an impact on you! I hope you let her know one day. Hopefully after all this Covid-19 slows down you can schedule a massage! My best wishes for you. Stay healthy and strong ❤️🤗
Love this , it's awesome ❤❤
I'm glad you like it! Thanks
Best therapist
Best comment! You are so kind 🤗❤️
Amazing massage. I am 26 weeks pregnant and unfortunately I can’t have a massage due to the coronavirus. All salons are closed 😢 thank you for your work 😍
Congratulations on your pregnancy! I’m sorry you can’t get a massage during this time. It is all strange and different for now. I hope you & baby stay healthy and strong 🤗❤️

New dad's, take notes. 😅 This can reduce crankiness during pregnancy.😄💜
Hahaha 🤣 so very true! ❤️🤗
Very educational thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. This was quite helpful. 😊
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate the comment & support 🙏🤗
Awesome, what are the main areas of caution one should avoid when performing pre natal massage?
There’s several areas that I mentioned in the video. Around the ankles is one of them. No pressure on the abdominal area. Thanks for the comment
Done!!!watched twice 👍
Ewa Mis 😂 twice! I hope you enjoyed it!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 omg sink full of dishes dog screaming for food daughter for supper and I am still on yours videos..! Ok I am heading to do something before divorce and etc😂😂absolutely great job!
Ewa Mis you’re hilarious!!! Get the dog fed, daughter some supper & honey some love. We don’t want to see you on divorce court! The videos aren’t going anywhere lol. You’re the best!!!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 😂😂😂😂😂
24 weeks and definitely need a massage. i’ve always had back problems but now it’s worse 😩 i would look forward to the back massage, leg and feet massage.
Congratulations on your pregnancy! Yes I know how difficult it is to have back problems and then add carrying a growing baby inside! Maybe you can get a relative just to rub your feet & a little on your back for now. Best thing is to get off your feet a couple of times a day and raise them. Best of wishes for you and the baby!
@@MassageTherapeutics915 thank you so much! pregnancy is no joke haha, but it’s amazing we are able to create life. i’ll definitely ask my husband to watch your video so he can help with that and will do what you recommended! your massages look like they’re the best. if only you were located in NC!
@@annngggx I’m sure you’re husband will be able to help relieve some of that tightness. His intent will help you feel better! 🤗 good luck with your babies birth 🙏
Do we keep our mom on one side the entire massage or do we ask them to switch ? Appreciate your content and expertise!🙏🏾🙏🏾
I turn them to both sides so I can get both hips & low back. They usually don’t mind. I help them & let them take their time! Thank you for your comment
I’m in so much pain my pregnancy has been overwhelming and my baby is so heavy I’m almost 8 months. I need this 😢
You’re almost there!!! Just a few more weeks. If you’ve made it this far you will make it. Best of wishes for you & your baby!!!! 🙏🙏🤗🤗
