Communicate

A big part of prenatal massage is that it allows you to take time for yourself during your pregnancy, because the physical and emotional toll on the body is great. It is essential that you tell your massage therapist where you need attention and your personal preferences. Massage therapy is also a helpful treatment after pregnancy as your body returns to normal state. All expectant mothers should check with their doctors prior to getting a massage as it may not be recommended. Also be sure that your massage therapist is trained in giving pre and post natal massage.
