I'm pregnant can I get a massage?

Yes you can receive a massage while you are pregnant. However before you schedule your massage, please make sure your massage therapist has specialized training in pregnancy or prenatal massage.
Here are some of the key benefits of getting a regular pregnancy massage:
An hour of deep relaxation which reduces stress.
Relief from muscle cramps especially in the lower back, neck, hips, and legs.
Increase in blood and lymph circulation, which can reduce swelling.
Reduces stress on weight-bearing joints.
Improves outcome of labor and eases labor pain.
For your comfort at around 16 weeks your massage therapist will change your position from you lying on your stomach to lying on your side and make you comfortable with pillows between your knees under your shoulders.
If you have a friend or family member who is pregnant gift her with a massage for the holidays. She will certainly appreciate it! Husbands your wife will thank you too if you purchase her a series of massages.
