Massage is an excellent way to alleviate the additional stresses on the body and mind that pregnant women experience. My Prenatal Massage is similar to my Eclectic Touch Massage, but gentler and with a few modifications. During the first trimester, I do not perform abdominal massage, but during the second and third trimesters I do perform a very light abdominal massage. (The baby usually likes the attention!) During the second and third trimesters, I do not lay the mother prone (face down). Instead, I have her lay on her side with a pillow to lean on. During the third trimester, it is also uncomfortable for the mother to lay supine (face up) on the table, so I prop her up to a modified, almost seated, position for that portion of the massage. I don’t use tapotement (chopping, tapping) strokes on pregnant women.
