Oh and a mini massage from the shoulders up, while in a seated position can help with headaches, and tension from being on your feet at work. also you can get pedicures, I am pretty sure and it does wonders for swollen feet

done with incense. just stay away from incense. and some women report being sensitive to perfumes and hair curling/straightening chemicals. a facial should be fine, just check with the beauty tech. you can even get your back treated at the chiropractor if it is hurting you. just make sure he knows you're pregnant, before any work is done.

What is smudging?

You want to avoid certain aroma therapies. do NOT burn incense sticks or do any smudging. There are gentler versions of everything from facials, to exams, to chiropractics, and hairstyling. Just be sure to tell the beauty operators that you are pregnant when you set the appointment, and mention any allergies or sensitivities to scent that you have noticed.

I'm feeling fat and bloated and need a little TLC. =(

Since I can't lay on my stomach for a nice long back massage, what are some other treatments I should get at the spa? I love facials...are there any that aren't safe to get while pregnant?
