Pregnancy is a period of time, more than any other, to consider health and happiness a priority. It is becoming common that pregnant ladies now want to take an active role in their pregnancy and their health during this special time.

 It helps to speed up venous and lymph circulation; it brings nutrients to tissues and eliminates waste.
 It helps to reduce swelling
 It eases varicose veins
 It helps to normalise blood pressure.
 It encourages deeper breathing and enhances internal respiration.
 Minimises nausea.
 It lifts the mood.
 Helps to reduce pain and treats the common discomforts of pregnancy
