I can't find a prenatal massage therapist---so bummed =(

There are salons left and right near me---chiropractors offices--etc----but I can't find anyone who does prenatal massages where you can be face down.  I've had them where you lay on your side and it was awful (had it with DS)---wasn't worth it. 

I've been to a chiropractor but I really want more muscle work vs adjustments right now----I'm so desperate.  I've searched high and low, all the places are in downtown Chicago which is about 60 miles away from me. 

Just had to vent.  I will say--I'm a licensed massage therapist although I don't practice anymore since I got in to a different career--and it almost makes me WANT to go back in to it, get a specialized table for us preggies and advertise the heck out of it.  It's obviously needed, that's for sure.

  • The only place that I've been to that has the face down table is in Naperville, so that's probably a hike for you!

  • That sucks. I live in a small city of 85,000 people and there is a spa that has lie down tables with the tummy cut out for pregnany ladies about a 15 minute drive away. You'd think being near Chicago it'd be better than that.

    I'm going to PM you!!!  I'd love the name of that place.  I'm willing to drive--Naperville isn't too bad---maybe 45 min or so.

  • Did you try contacting your hospital?  I know our hospital offers pregnancy massages.
