Prenatal Massage in Layton, Utah
Specialized prenatal, postpartum, and custom therapeutic massage care from Mindy Bigler, LMT.
Massage that respects the pregnant body
Prenatal massage is not regular massage with lighter pressure. Your body needs better positioning, careful support, and a therapist who understands how pregnancy changes the hips, back, pelvis, ribs, feet, and nervous system. Mindy uses fully adjustable body support cushions, wedges, pillows, bolsters, and session modifications so you can rest safely and comfortably. Many clients are surprised that they can lie face-down again with the right setup.
- Back, hip, rib, pelvic, shoulder, and neck discomfort
- Swelling, stress, sleep disruption, and general pregnancy tension
- Postpartum soreness, nursing posture, and recovery support
- Custom pressure based on what your body actually needs that day

Prenatal Body Balance Sessions
Body balance work is a more targeted session for the pelvis, abdomen, low back, uterine ligaments, and the soft tissue around the pelvis. It uses massage, muscle release work, active movement, and stretching to help the body make more space and feel less restricted. This can be especially helpful later in pregnancy when a baby is breech, transverse, posterior, or simply needs more room to maneuver. It is not a replacement for medical care, chiropractic care, or provider guidance, but it can be a strong complement to your birth preparation.
- 60-minute standalone body balance session: $100
- 30-minute body balance add-on: $50
- Often most useful after the first trimester and in the later weeks of pregnancy
- Designed to support comfort, pelvic balance, and birth preparation
Prenatal Massage Safety, Pressure & Positioning
There are a lot of old myths around prenatal massage: no feet, no deeper pressure, no lower back work, no first trimester, no face-down positioning. With a trained prenatal massage therapist and the right support, massage can be therapeutic, comfortable, and appropriate for most normal pregnancies. Mindy does not treat pregnant clients like they are fragile. She adjusts the table setup, bolsters, pressure, and focus areas based on your body and intake form. If you have a high-risk pregnancy or a medical concern, ask your provider and share that information before the session.
Face-down is often possible
Specialty cushions create space for your belly and breasts so many clients can rest comfortably.
Side-lying is available too
If your body prefers side-lying or needs extra support, the session can be modified.
Pressure is customized
Sessions can be relaxing, focused, or more therapeutic depending on what feels right.
When Should You Come In?
Early to mid pregnancy
Late pregnancy
Postpartum
After C-section
Prenatal Massage FAQ
Can I lie face-down during pregnancy massage?
Yes. Mindy uses specialty orthopedic body support cushions that are fully adjustable for your belly and breasts. Side-lying and extra bolsters are available if your body needs a different setup.
Is massage safe during the first or third trimester?
For most normal pregnancies, prenatal massage can be safe throughout pregnancy. If you have a high-risk condition or specific medical concern, check with your prenatal provider and share the details on your intake form.
Can you use deeper pressure during pregnancy?
Yes, pressure can be customized. Prenatal massage does not have to be only light touch, but the session should be adapted by someone trained in pregnancy positioning and precautions.
How soon can I come in after birth?
Some clients return within the first few days postpartum and bring baby with them. After a C-section, Mindy usually recommends waiting until the incision is healing well, often around two weeks or longer depending on recovery.
What should I wear?
Wear or remove what helps you feel comfortable. You stay properly draped during the session, and only the area being worked on is uncovered.
Do you only work with pregnant women?
No. Pregnancy and postpartum care are specialties, but many of the techniques also help with back, hip, and general body discomfort. Male clients are accepted by referral only.
