Some recommendations for Pregnancy massage

Once you are in your second trimester, a pregnancy massage does not have to be a light or gentle treatment. Deep, firm strokes are used for tight and sore areas of the body, with great care taken around the abdominals, lower extremities, pressure points etc.

It's advisable to check with your doctor prior to getting a massage as some conditions, such as Diabetes or high blood pressure are not recommended. There are other options for treatment in these circumstances such as a relaxing head, neck, face and arm massage, or a consultation for how to relieve different types of stress during Pregnancy. For the full body Pregnancy massage some areas will get more attention and some areas will either be completely avoided or very lightly treated. This includes any points that control the uterus and cervix - Maria will always adjust your treatment to support your personal needs.
