Re: Maternity Massage?

  • I had two with my first pregnancy.   DIVINE!!!

    One place had these fancy pillows that allowed me to be on my back and then on my stomach (there was a cut out for the belly that cradled me when I was on my back and then allowed me to lay face down).     The other place did the massage with me laying on my side, flipping halfway through.     But I found that they REALLY helped with the pinched nerve pain in my back.    

    Enjoy!!!

    Because we're fancy like that.

  • I've had one so far... so nice! My feet were swelling and she did this technique on my legs to help move the fluid and it totally worked! My ankles were back to normal. Not to mention how wonderful the back rub felt too!

  • Yes....No joke- I have never had a butt massage and it was the best part! I never realized how much tension you carry there! I loved laying on my tummy but then the babies felt like 2 fish fighting in a fishbowl LOL!

  • I've had several and they are so relaxing.  They have me lay on my side and unlike a regular massage where they really work out your muscles, this is more about relaxing and making you feel good.  Enjoy!

  • They're wonderful. If I wasn't so far along I'd do it again :)
  • I'm jealous, they sound amazing.  What I wouldn't pay just to be able to take a nap laying on my stomach!  lol
