The best maternity treats for mums-to-be

When you’re pregnant your body goes through the most amazing changes as your baby grows and develops. It is no wonder that it can sometimes leave you feeling uncomfortable and drained.

Treating yourself to some spa pampering when you’re pregnant is the perfect way to not only help you completely relax, but also to alleviate some of the normal discomforts of pregnancy such as an aching back, swollen feet and dry, itchy skin.

The best time to enjoy a little indulgence is during your second or third trimester when hopefully any morning sickness is behind you.

At The Spa at the Bedford Lodge Hotel, our team of professional therapists are here to ensure that you have the best experience by talking about your individual concerns and creating treatments tailored to your own particular needs.

You might like to make the most of some precious ‘me’ time with a relaxing massage – an effective way to ease an aching back, relieve any tension and get those feel-good endorphins flowing round the body.

Our Pre & Post Natal treatment includes a deeply nourishing body massage specifically designed to target areas prone to stress and tension during pregnancy, such as the shoulders, neck, upper and lower back.

Our prenatal massages are usually performed while you lie on your left side to optimize blood flow back to the uterus and placenta.

This wonderfully relaxing treatment includes a gentle back exfoliation if required, followed by a soothing body and scalp massage focusing on alleviating muscular aches whilst helping to restore energy levels to leave you feeling refreshed and revitalised.

If heavy legs and tired feet are a particular problem during your pregnancy, our Lighter Legs treatment is the perfect solution to help reduce puffiness and soothe ache and pains.

After your treatment, why not carry on the good work by putting your feet up in our relaxation room, a haven of peace and tranquillity. A beautiful, calming space that will help enhance the benefits of your treatment further. Just sink into one of the comfortable sofas and be soothed by soft lighting and music as you fall asleep under our soft blankets.

Pure bliss!
