Is massage good for pregnant women on their 1st trimester?
I would make sure that the person doing the massages knew what they were doing. Throughout my entire pregnancy I have gone to a chiropractor. He has really helped me a lot! I go anywhere from once a week to 3 times a week depending on how I feel. They help to relax your mind and muscles, help with back and leg pain. It has made my life so much easier! And most chiro’s have special tables to where the mother can lay on her stomach throughout the pregnancy. During the last trimester, it is definitely important to make sure that it is a knowledgeable masseuse because there are certain pressure points that can cause a woman to go into labor. So those points need to be avoided until she is at full term.
