Pregnancy shifts your centre of gravity, hollows the lower back, weighs on the legs and breaks up sleep. The prenatal massage addresses each of these with gentle, slow and safe movements. You lie on your side, supported by cushions under the head, the belly and between the knees, then turn to the other side halfway through. No pressure is applied to the abdomen.
We offer it only at Izzy Studio, on Route des Creux in Verbier, where the quiet setting and on-site parking make the visit easier. The treatment is given from the second trimester onwards, with your doctor's or midwife's approval.
Who is it for?
For mothers-to-be from the fourth month, whether it is a first pregnancy or not. For the back that aches by evening, the legs and ankles that swell, the nights that are too short. For those who simply need an hour for themselves, carrying nothing and managing nothing. If heavy legs are the main issue, lymphatic drainage may also suit; talk to us when booking. After the birth, the classic massage naturally takes over.
How the treatment goes
- Welcome and consultation We go over how far along you are, how the pregnancy is going, where you feel uncomfortable and what your doctor has advised. Your therapist then settles you on your side with as many cushions as it takes.
- Back, pelvis and hips Gliding pressure and slow kneading move down the back to the sacrum and hips, releasing the muscles that compensate for the weight of the belly.
- Legs and feet The legs are massaged with gentle draining strokes from the ankles towards the thighs to ease the heaviness. The feet get particular attention.
- Turning over: arms, neck and shoulders You turn calmly onto your other side. The work resumes on the second flank, then finishes with the arms, shoulders and neck, so often tight from lack of sleep.
- Back to calm A few minutes lying still while everything settles. We help you up slowly and you leave with a glass of water.

Good to know
From the second trimester, with your doctor's approval. Come in comfortable clothes and take your time getting up. The treatment is available at the Studio only, Monday to Saturday. It makes a thoughtful gift card for an expectant mother. We do not give this massage in the first trimester or in cases of high-risk pregnancy, pre-eclampsia, bleeding or contractions. If in doubt, ask your doctor or midwife.
Frequently asked questions
From the second trimester, that is the fourth month, and right up to term if the pregnancy is progressing normally. We ask for your doctor's or midwife's approval.
Lying face down is impossible; lying on your back, the weight of the uterus can compress blood vessels and make you feel faint. On your side, wedged with cushions, you are stable and relaxed, and your therapist can reach the back, hips and legs.
