The Golden Rules: What’s Safe and What’s Not

Safe Throughout Pregnancy (With Modifications):

✅ Prenatal massage (after first trimester at most spas)
✅ Pregnancy-safe facials
✅ Manicures and pedicures
✅ Gentle body treatments
✅ Reflexology (with trained therapist)
✅ Meditation and relaxation sessions

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DHInVl1TrAE/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Proceed With Caution:

⚠️ First trimester treatments (many spas won’t accept you)
⚠️ Essential oils (some are contraindicated)
⚠️ Deep tissue massage
⚠️ Hot stone therapy

Absolutely Avoid:

❌ Saunas and steam rooms
❌ Hot tubs and spa pools
❌ Body wraps that raise core temperature
❌ Chemical peels
❌ Detox treatments
❌ Electric muscle stimulation

Generally spas will recommend that you avoid treatments and hot facilities in your first trimester, though when performed properly, prenatal massage can be safe to get at any point in pregnancy, even early on.

Trimester-by-Trimester: What to Expect

First Trimester (Weeks 1-12)

The cautious period. Many Perth spas won’t accept first-trimester clients, but it’s not because massage is dangerous during this time. The reality? Miscarriages occur in about 10-20% of pregnancies, mostly in the first 12 weeks, and happen regardless of whether you’ve had a massage or not. Spas simply want to avoid any possibility of being blamed if a miscarriage occurs after treatment. The good news: Prenatal massage is actually considered safe throughout pregnancy when performed by a trained therapist. Some spas will still treat first-trimester clients with doctor’s clearance or if you’re an existing client.

What’s Available:

Gentle facials (with pregnancy-safe products)
Manicures and pedicures
Meditation and relaxation sessions
Some spas will provide massage with doctor’s clearance

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKEjpYETYzs/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Best Approach: Call ahead and discuss options. Some therapists are comfortable treating first-trimester clients.

Second Trimester (Weeks 13-27)

The golden period! Morning sickness has (hopefully) passed, and you’re not yet uncomfortable. This is when most spas welcome you with open arms.

Popular Treatments:

Full pregnancy massage
Body treatments for stretch mark prevention
Prenatal facials for pregnancy glow (or acne)
Reflexology for swelling and discomfort

Third Trimester (Weeks 28-40)

Everything hurts, and you deserve ALL the pampering.

What to Know:

For guests in their third trimester, a medical certificate from your doctor approving treatment is required at some spas
Positioning becomes crucial – good spas have special cushions
Focus shifts to preparation for birth and relief from discomfort

What Actually Happens During a Pregnancy Massage?

If you’ve never had a prenatal massage, here’s what to expect:

The Setup

Positioning: They use a pregnancy cushion to provide maximum comfort
Side-lying is most common (no lying on your stomach or flat on your back)
Pillows everywhere for support
Some places have special tables with belly cutouts

The Technique

Gentler pressure than regular massage
Focus on areas that bear extra weight: lower and upper back and reducing swelling in the feet
No deep tissue work on legs (blood clot precaution)
Lots of attention to hips, lower back, and shoulders

https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFlAAIjffk/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

The Oils

Pregnancy-safe products only
Often unscented or lightly scented
Rich in vitamin E for stretch mark prevention
No essential oils that could trigger contractions

Budget-Friendly Options

Not everyone has $230 for a Crown Spa experience (looking at you, baby gear expenses). Here are wallet-friendly options:

Under $150:

Urban Massage Studio: $120 for 60 minutes
Endota Spa: Pregnancy massages at Endota Spa start at $130
Peace in a Pod (Ocean Keys): Affordable options with good reviews

Package Deal Tips:

Book multiple sessions upfront for discounts
Look for “new mum” memberships
Check Groupon but read reviews carefully
Ask about off-peak pricing

Safety First: Questions to Ask

Before booking anywhere, ask:

“Are your therapists specifically trained in prenatal massage?” Not just “experienced with” – properly trained.
“What trimester restrictions do you have?” Know their policies upfront.
“How do you position clients during treatment?” They should have proper cushions or positioning aids.
“Which products do you use?” Everything should be pregnancy-safe.
“Do you require medical clearance?” Some spas need a doctor’s note, especially for third trimester.

DIY Spa Day: When You Can’t Get Out

Sometimes the thought of putting on real clothes is too much. Create your own pregnancy spa at home:

The Setup:

Warm (not hot) bath with Epsom salts
Pregnancy-safe bath oils (avoid clary sage, rosemary, juniper)
Fluffy towels warmed in the dryer
Calming music playlist
Water bottle (stay hydrated!)

Safe Home Treatments:

Gentle face mask (avoid retinoids and high-dose salicylic acid)
Foot soak with peppermint (great for swelling)
Partner massage with coconut oil
Meditation or prenatal yoga
Cucumber slices for puffy eyes

Red Flags: When to Skip the Spa

Cancel that appointment if you have:

High-risk pregnancy
Preeclampsia
Risk of premature labor
Severe swelling or varicose veins
Any bleeding or unusual symptoms
Your doctor says no

Always trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, speak up or leave.

The Partner Factor

Many Perth spas offer couples packages where your partner can join you. It’s a beautiful way to connect before baby arrives and gives them a taste of the relaxation you deserve daily (hint, hint).

Couples-Friendly Spots:

Crown Spa (luxury couples rooms)
BODHI Spa (multiple locations with couples options)
Endota Spa (ask about couples pregnancy packages)

Post-Pregnancy: Don’t Stop the Pampering

Remember, the spa love doesn’t have to end when baby arrives:

Many spas offer postnatal massage
Some have “mum and bub” sessions
Gift vouchers make perfect new parent presents
Book something for 6 weeks postpartum (you’ll need it)

The Bottom Line

Pregnancy is hard work, and you deserve every bit of pampering you can get. Perth’s pregnancy spa scene has evolved beautifully, with options for every budget and trimester. Whether you splurge on a Crown Spa babymoon or enjoy a budget-friendly massage at your local spa, the important thing is taking time for yourself.

Your body is doing something incredible. The least you can do is give it a massage and a facial, right?

So go ahead, book that treatment. Your swollen feet, aching back, and stressed mind will thank you. And when you’re lying there, finally relaxed for the first time in weeks, remember: this is not selfish, it’s self-care. There’s a difference, mama.

Ready to book your pregnancy pampering? Start with a second-trimester massage and work your way up to the full spa experience. Your body (and baby) will thank you.

P.S. - Save those spa gift vouchers from your baby shower. Trust us, you’ll want them for postnatal treatments when you finally emerge from the newborn bubble.

P.P.S. - If morning sickness has you down, some spas offer gift vouchers that don’t expire. Buy now, use when you can actually keep food down.
