Early pregnancy massage

Hi, I know it is recommended to go for prenatal massage only after 16weeks. However, I am currently at the 8th week and my back is hurting like crazy, does anyone have any recommendation for first trimester massage or did any first trimester massage before? Thankyou! #pleasehelp #pregnancy

Haha I had a rather intense/violent (unexpectedly so) full body massage that gave me quite a few bruises just a few days before I found out I was pregnant 😂 I was probably around 5-6 weeks pregnant then. Probably wouldn’t have gone for it had I known I was pregnant, but thankfully no issues thus far, currently in my 3rd trimester and all is well :) but yes - I’d say hold off that massage until at least mid 2nd trimester; think that’s what most massage places offering prenatal massage recommend as well
