Anyone know of any places that specialize in this type of massage? I know most spas will have a PG massage but I'm looking for one that specializes in it. I live in Issaquah but work in Bellevue so any places on the Eastside would be great!

Re: Place that specializes in pregnancy massage?
Hopefully this won't get me in trouble, but you should pm massagegirly. She works in Mill Creek, which isn't that far of a drive and she's very reasonable and fabulous.
The other place I know of is in Lynnwood, so again, not exactly in your area. It's called Tranquil Haven Day Spa, and they cater to moms and moms-to-be.
I think you're safe since you didn't include a link.

I have never used Massagegirly - but I'm sure she's amazing.
For Christmas, my office gifted the women one spa treatment at Gene Juarez in Bellevue. I decided since I was preganant, I'd do the maternity massage. IT WAS PHENOMINAL! I will probably do another one when I'm about 38 weeks along. The gal that did it (she's the only one that does) said that they can pretty much do it until you are in labor. SWEET!
I don't know if I know a place that only does Prenatal Massages but the places that do them have people who have been trained and are usually specialized in a few different areas. I found out that my insurance covers therapeutic (prenatal) massages if it's from a doctor or therapist. So now I see Dr. Deborah Myers (ND) at Wisdom Tree in Bellevue/Redmond almost every week.
Here are some local places I've tried:
All Star Chiropractic and Massage on Bellevue Lake. Their 55min Prenatal massage is $75. They do a great job getting rid of the tension in my neck and shoulders, headaches, backaches and tailbone/hip pain.
Salish Lodge. Best massage experience I've ever had. I think it's something you should treat yourself to at least once (if you can afford it). They have a wide variety of Prenatal Massage Treatments from a 25 min/$55 leg massage to a 80 min/$185 Skin Rejunvenation and Moisturizing Massage. My husband booked a Spa Day for me here for our Anniversary. Best day ever!
Massage Envy (Redmond). It's okay. My friend Nina does Prenatal Massages in the Redmond location so I decided I'd give it a try since they run a $39 promo for an hour massage (for 1st time visits). Her massages are much lighter than I needed and they didn't take away my aches and pains but it was quite relaxing.
InSpa (Redmond). They do a pretty good job. 60min Prenatal Massage for $79 or 90min for $99. If you sign up for their Membership (it's like $20) you save 10% for all your services and you also get to give a Signature anything to a friend who has never been there.
I adored my pregnancy massage from Megan Jones. She works at The Health Connection in Tacoma.
I've also heard good things about Tranquil Haven and I thought there was another one in Snohomish that a Bumpie had gone too. I can't find the review, but I'll dig up links to the other two.

I'm going to start working on all the recommendations and I'll report back (without links....)
sending a PM to a fellow bumpie as well...
I have an appointment in a couple weeks with a recommended therapist in Portland (we'll be there for a long, very long, weekend of working) I can't hardly wait!
