Massage therapy is a treatment whose sole purpose is to make us feel better and to add to our health. It relaxes us and boosts our bodies immune response, but sometimes it's not the best treatment for us. Massage therapy can actually intensify your symptoms or cause other issues to arise that are uncomfortable or unwanted at times. Here are a few examples of when massage therapy is not such a great idea.
Remember to discuss any health concerns with your massage therapist and to let them know if your health history has changed since your last visit. Tell me: How does massage help you stay healthy?

The statement that massage during the first trimester of pregnancy is a perpetuating myth. It is not harmful if done by an MT that is educated in pregnancy massage. Most are just paranoid that if the mother has a miscarriage she may blame the massage.

Sorry, I meant "The statement that massage during the first trimester of pregnancy *should not be done* is a perpetuating myth."
