In a time where I knew my body would be working so hard to give everything to the growing little life inside, prenatal massage was instinctual to me. I knew I wanted to do everything I could to give back to my body and baby and support all of the changes that were to come. Jasmine has been the guru to this decision! She takes the time to listen to my needs and every time I leave her I feel better than when I came in and eagerly anticipate our next massage! – Kim, prenatal massage client
