Almost passed out during my massage!

I don't know what happened.... it was toward the end and all of a sudden I got extremely nausous and started sweating. My massage thereapist said I got really pale. The room started swimming and I thought I was going to black out. SHe quickly got me a cool cloth and had me lay on my side and take some deep breaths. Started feeling better. I still don't feel 100%... like something is off. I feel baby kicking so thats good. I'm just gonna take it easy and rest. DH is out of town so a friend is gonna come hang with me just in case.

On the plus side I racked up at Gap maternity yesterday. But one get on free on all shirts and dress pants/capris were $15!!! Then went to pickles and icecream and got a maternity business suit from Olian, normally $180 for $30!!!!

    Eep! That is scarey! Maybe she pinched something. I would call the doc if you don't feel better soon!  And awesome score on the clothes!!

    WTF would the therapist have pinched?

    Massage lowers blood pressure so thats most likely what happened.  Do you have low bp to begin with?

    It should be a question on all massage intake forms.  Its fairly common, but if the therapist knows ahead of time they'll be better prepared for it.

    I do as well and actually passed out a few times with my first, just make sure to let them know if you go in again.

    I have regularly low bp and this used to ALWAYS happen to me when I got chair massages. I obviously had to stop, but I know what a scary feeling it is!
