Question:
Hope you can help.
A friend is dying for a back massage but she is 8 months pregnant.
any tips?
Hi there
My experience has been to do everything in either sidelying with pillows propped under her stomach, between her legs, under her head and hugging a pillow.
If sidelying isn't comfortable try having her sit in a chair and lean up against pillows against your table. Drape from front to back like a hospital nightgown (open in the back).
Keep it short and relaxing. No heating pad!!!!
Good luck!
Hiya
is there someone local who is qualified in pregnancy massage that you can refer her too? if not or she doesnt want to go anywhere else then there are a couple of threads on this already, give me a minute and i will post up the links...
