They are all totally fine during pregnancy. Massage YUMMMMM I had loads of them! They would need to be doing some pretty firm 'pressure' points to effect your pregnancy hon and it'd be a shame to miss out on how delicious one would be especially seeing your body is probably really sore! When you book in you could just request a therapist who is qualified to do pregnancy massage
hi there I asked this myself and was told my my spa/massage therapist
Wax fine
Mani /pedi is fine but avoid pressure point int he foot related to pregnancy
no massage for the reasons a) you have to lie down and not safe for baby on tummy and also pressure points
they should have you lay on your side for a massage unless they have the special preggy lady fat belly massage table. But if it's a beauty place they probably will just do relaxation massage and not lymphatic drains, bowen, pressure points etc etc as those are more remedial and sports massage disciplines... so it should feel nice but probably won't do much if you have a sore back iykwim. You may wnat to check what products they plan to use as well.
Oh good I was a bit concerned about what Id do. Ill just be careful what I let them do to me with the massage & make sure they take my PG into account. Thanks Ladies
Any beauty place I have ever been to has asked about being pregnant before you are allowed in.
Not sure I would go the eyelash tint, but I have had all the other stuff while pregnant. Enjoy.
There is nothing wrong with laying on your tummy whilst pregnant if you are comfortable to do so. I was able to lie on mine until 33 weeks. I was also massaged in this position at 28 weeks.
You need to tell any massage therapist that you are pregnant and how far along you are, but there is little to no risk if you are out of the first trimester. Many will not massage first tri women, but this is a cover their arse kind of thing. Any decent and properly trained therapist knows exactly where to and where not to touch a pregnant woman.
Your concern should be the oils they will use. Again, telling them you are pregnant will ensure they use neutral and safe oils on you.
I've been worried about eyebrow & lash tint. I know we're not meant to use hairdye but will this little bit of skin contact matter?
Cos its getting desperate I'd really like to get mine done!
And in my opinion massage is fine, but it would be good to have someone who knows what they're doing. My physio is a preg specialist and she definitely does deep tissue, and i'd be lost without it!
