"Many women think that enduring physical discomfort, even of an extreme level, is a normal part of pregnancy. I have learned this is simply not the case on several occasions with Sati. With her expert hands, in an hour session she has resolved for me: -six weeks of lower back pain in the first trimester that had severely hampered my mobility and was no longer endurable. This pain was not responsive to stretching, yoga or regular massage. She solved it in one visit. -rib pain on the left side in the third trimester that felt like a rack of fractured ribs. I was not able to breathe deeply, sit up or roll over. She was able to immediately identify the issue and resolve it in one visit, where the doctor and specialist chiropractors could not figure it out or resolve it. I am so grateful for her help as she has helped me live a normal life while pregnant. I have gone to her for routine maintenance appointments as well, even if I’m feeling good. In these appointments, she facilitates the expansion and stretching of the pregnant body, restores muscular symmetry, relieves pressure on the diaphragm and stomach which increases lung capacity and decreases acid reflux, and assists baby on finding a comfortable position in the womb. All this practical work happens while she relaxes the entire body in a wonderfully pleasant way. I always come away feeling improved, supported and amazed by her expertise and insight, and consider her a crucial part of my care team to prepare my body for a smooth birth. While she is more expensive than other prenatal massage specialists in the area, this appropriately relates to the value she provides and her comparative skill level. As a practical gal, regular appointments with Sati is the one thing I splurge on. We are so lucky to have her locally. Women drive for several hours away for appointments with her."
