Can I get a massage if I'm pregnant?

Yes. Prenatal massage is tailored to a pregnant woman's changing body. Your massage therapist can help alleviate and cope with some of the discomfort that you may be experiencing during your pregnancy such as: low back pain, chronic headaches and tension in your back, neck and shoulders. However, you should check with your prenatal doctor before scheduling a massage appointment.

What parts of the body can be massaged?

You can have your whole body massaged. You can also request your therapist to only work on specific areas such as:

Scalp
Face
Neck
Shoulders
Arms
Chest
Abdomen
Legs
Feet
Back
Gluteal muscle (buttocks)

What should I expect during my visit?

You will be shown to a private treatment room where you will be asked to disrobe to your comfort level. Keep in mind that certain clothing items can impede the fluidity of specific areas to be massaged. You can then get comfortable on a massage table by snuggling under a sheet and blanket. If possible, you will be asked to lie on your back to start your massage and you will remain covered during your massage. The only areas exposed will be the areas that are going to be massaged at that specific time. A massage oil or cream will be applied to your skin. At any time during your massage, you may let your therapist know if the amount of pressure she is using becomes too intense.
