Massage while pregnant

I have heard that one shouldnt have massage when pregnant. how true is that and why is it not good?

I had the worst pain in my body and just had 1,5 hours of massage. feel so good now and am in heaven:D

Re: Massage while pregnant

I thought there were specific pre natal massages for pregnant women.. if they weren't good why would they have them??? did you get a regular one or the pre natal one?

I get massage every now and then and it feels great.. my back hurts so much that massage is a must but then I am not talking professional massages :D

I have heard that certian back messages in the 1 trimester can cause miscarriage. so u have to tell the person messaging that u are pregnant.

She has been coming to my place since my 2nd trimester. She is great!!havent had such a lovely massage from any other place. its regular body massage. She learnt it from her mum in Mongolia so only tricky part is that she isnt a proffessional. However, her massage technique is unique and really helpful!!! I had the worst back pain today and feel so much better now...could clean the whole place and do all the chores waiting to be done but decided to chill today:D
