Insomnia; the inability to sleep, frequent waking, or un-refreshing sleep, affects 78% of Women during their Pregnancy.  The causes of Insomnia during Pregnancy are any number of the Physical Discomforts that can become so ordinary before Birth; Back Pain, Joint Pain, Muscle Cramps, Frequent Urination, Heartburn, and Hormonal Changes, as well as the Emotional Discomfort from any Anxiety over the Babies Health, the Birthing Process, or the Future in general.

Studies have proven that Pregnancy Massage Improves Sleep during Pregnancy by Reducing the Tension and Inflammation that causes Back Pain, Joint Pain, and Muscle Cramps, and by deactivating the Reticular Alarm System and turning dominance from the Sympathetic to the Parasympathetic Nervous System, the part of our Brain directly responsible for Relaxation and Rejuvenation.  Yet in an even more direct way than removing the obstacles to sleep, Pregnancy Massage also increases the production of an Endorphin called Serotonin, an extremely important neurotransmitter that is essential to our survival and largely responsible for Sleep.
