What to expect during a pregnancy massage session

When you go for a pregnancy massage, the massage therapist will likely ask you some questions about your pregnancy and health history.

They will also ask about any areas of discomfort you are experiencing. This information will help the therapist to tailor the massage to your needs.

Most pregnancy massages last between 60 and 90 minutes. The therapist may use a variety of techniques, including Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, and acupressure.

You should feel free to let the therapist know if any particular movements or massage techniques are uncomfortable for you.

You may want to wear loose clothing to your pregnancy massage session. You will likely be asked to undress down to your underwear so that the therapist can access all of the areas that need treatment.

Be sure to bring a water bottle and a towel, as you may get a little sweaty during the massage.
