Floating benefits for pregnant women

Floatation therapy during pregnancy, especially in the late second and third trimesters, offers a great way to relax and ease the pain and discomfort in a weightless environment.*

Floating gives an amazing sense of wellbeing and calm, as well as a wealth of pain-relieving and relaxation benefits.

Pregnant women can benefit from floatation therapy in several ways. Floating relieves pressure from feet and back and offers an escape from the added weight and strain from carrying a baby.

Floating can also help mothers-to-be create a symbiotic sense of connection with their babies.

Some women see similarities between floating and the womb—which deepens their connection to their unborn baby.


*We recommend checking with your doctor first before you float.

Floating can also help mothers-to-be create a symbiotic sense of connection with their babies.

Pregnancy is a precious thing that can also be sometimes painful with a dash of discomfort added to the mix. From muscle pain (especially the back and feet), to bloating, raging hormones and mixed up emotions.

Floating allows you to escape the added weight of pregnancy, taking the strain off your body – especially your back and feet.

For many expectant mothers, the float pod creates heightened sensitivity and connection with the baby. Many compare the float pod to being back in the womb.

As everyone experiences pregnancy differently, the benefits will also differ. But floating can help alleviate many common discomforts associated that pregnancy brings, like:-

  • Nausea and digestive issues
  • Stress and anxiety
  • Swelling
  • Aches and pains especially back and feet
  • Fatigue
  • Sleep difficulties

 

Here is a review an expectant mother left after a floatation session at cloud10:-

“Since entering my 3rd trimester of pregnancy I’ve found it difficult to really find any position that is comfortable… until I decided to give floating at Cloud10 a try.

I was able to find a very comfortable side laying position using the float pillow & noodle provided and it didn’t take me long to start drifting off into deep relaxation. During these last few weeks of pregnancy your body and brain go through so much, it was so beautiful to just switch it all off, feel completely weightless and perhaps best of all, the little niggle pains I had before the float were completely gone afterwards!

I would absolutely recommend floating if you are pregnant and in need of a little well deserved self care!” – kathryn marie
