Pregnancy massage - NOT reccomended 3/29/2007

I'm 5+months pregnant, pulled the muscles in my mid to lower back, and was really looking for a helpful massage. Initially, the therapist gave me two decorative pillows (with scratchy embroidery) on which to lay stomach-side down. I asked how best to position them and there was no suggestion. When turned to my side, I was not supported, braced, or positioned in any way to provide reistance against the massage - therefore she couldn't really apply much pressure or work to any area of my back. She primarily resorted to the lateral areas of my shoulder/neck area. Overall it was akward, not relaxing, and so completely disappointing. (Other areas were OK - she had a nice touch - though many times it seemed difficult to find the insertion/attachment points.) Afterwards, I was informed the massage cost an additional $20 since it was for "pregnancy"...I'm assuming for their extra expertise? This was simply a bummer and absolutely not worth the time or money. Pros: cute place Cons: pregnancy expertise, no parking more
