When Massage Might Not Be Recommended

​

While prenatal massage is safe and beneficial for most expectant mothers, there are certain situations where additional care or medical clearance may be needed before scheduling a session. Your well-being is our top priority, and we encourage you to consult your healthcare provider if any of the following apply:

​

• High-Risk Pregnancies: If you have conditions such as preeclampsia, placenta previa, or gestational diabetes,

• History of Miscarriage or Preterm Labour.

• Severe Swelling or Pain: Sudden or extreme swelling, especially in the legs, or unusual pain may indicate underlying conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or other issues that require immediate medical attention.
