Pregnancy Massage: Safe or Risky During First Trimester?
During pregnancy, foot massage can be safe if done correctly and with caution. Light touch and shallow strokes are recommended to avoid fetal distress or miscarriage. Refrain from deep tissue massage or manipulation during the first trimester. Regular practice can reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and alleviate leg pain. Consult a primary care provider for guidance on finding certified practitioners and implementing necessary precautions before scheduling sessions. Always prioritize caution when trying new experiences while pregnant.
