How do you describe your massage technique for pregnant women?

The massage techniques used depend on the issue that is being addressed. Swedish massage is a nice relaxing massage with long strokes and varying pressure that addresses the center of the muscles. The pressure depends on the situation and circumstances. The work is performed with an understanding of how the muscles work together and oppose each other. In addition, the understanding of muscle layers enables Lori to work within these specific layers without poking and provide optimal relaxation.
