3 myths about pregnancy massage: 1. A pregnant woman should not receive deep tissue massage. FALSE A womans body goes through remarkable changes throughout her pregnancy and clinical massage may help to alleviate the pain she may experience with these changes. 2. A pregnant woman should not receive massage in the first trimester. FALSE There are a few modifications that should be made, but massage is safe for a woman in the first 12 weeks of her pregnancy. 3. A massage therapist should not touch a pregnant womans feet because of pressure points. FALSE A womans feet can ache and be fatigued and massage is a wonderful way to alleviate this discomfort. Being aware of the location of these pressure points will enable the practitioner to give a wonderful massage with no risk to the mother. ~ Thank you, Rebecca Brown
