Relax, mama, your body has been working hard. At Blooma, we totally get it – growing a tiny human (or recovering from birth) can be exhausting! Here you’ll find a supportive community of people who understand you, ready to give you the gift of relaxation with our specialty massages, tailored to your unique body.
Our expert therapists will make sure you’re comfortable every step of the way, and use gentle techniques to ease all those pregnancy pains, like swollen feet and an achy back. (psst: we’ve got your non-pregnancy aches covered, too)
So book that appointment and drop by our South Minneapolis studio. And we’ll make sure you leave here feeling refreshed, relaxed, and ready to tackle the rest of your week.
(Stomach sleepers, you may want to be sitting down for this.) All our prenatal massages are available on specialized, weight-relieving, belly down tables, designed to let you completely relax.
We’ll help you get comfy in a safe and supported way. Let us take the weight off your back in ways you may not have felt for a long time, so you can focus on the good stuff.

Tap into the transformative power of Reiki, a holistic practice that promotes healing on multiple levels. Calm anxiety, restore energy balance, and release tension and stress from both body and mind with the gentle touch of Reiki therapy.
By channeling universal life force energy, Reiki facilitates the natural healing processes within your body, promoting physical and emotional well-being. Experience the profound effects of Reiki’s hands-on, light-touch approach, and enhance your session with the option to incorporate crystals upon request.
This Reiki session is tailored specifically for infants and children, from newborns up to the age of 13. The session lasts between 10-20 minutes, with adjustments made to suit your child’s comfort and mood.
Reiki is a gentle healing practice that promotes stress reduction and relaxation by using non-invasive hand placements to transfer universal energy (“Reiki”). The session takes place with your child fully clothed, either lying on a massage table, in your arms, or even playing nearby, depending on their preference. If your little one has a hard time sitting still, they might not be the best candidate for Reiki.
Reiki is safe for all ages, including babies and pregnant individuals. Most people feel relaxed afterward, with potential benefits like improved sleep, clearer thinking, and even relief from health symptoms.
Note: children under 14 years old must be accompanied by their guardian during sessions. Children 14-17 years old require a guardian in the building (but not in room).
