Can massage induce labour?
The short answer? No
There is no strong evidence to say that massage, acupressure or aromatherapy can start labour.
And thatโs why I donโt offer an โinduction massageโ, instead, my Due Time treatment is about
โจ Helping you to relax and get the oxytocin flowing
โจ Easing the aches and tension, so that you can move into optimal positions during birth
โจ Giving you tools and techniques that you can continue using at home, leading up to and during labour
I believe in combining traditional knowledge with evidence-based care, supporting your body, not trying to force it.
Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is to rest: a calm mind, a relaxed body, and a feeling of safetyโฆ signalling to your baby that you are ready for them to arrive when they are ready ๐ค
If youโre approaching your due date and would like to know more about the Due Time Treatment, please, ask away ๐
