I am in my 2nd trimester and my back is killing me. Can anyone recommend a good place to get a prenatal massage in the city, preferably on the ues? TIA.

- Medical Massage Group on E. 75th does great prenatal massages - not a fancy spa, but fabulous massages

- I went to Medical Massage too...it felt great but it didn't help my back at all. My dr said if the baby is in a particular position that you just have to wait for db to move. I thought pre-natal yoga at Yoga Works (3rd and 75th) helped the most.

  - op: I am actually going to Yoga Works 3 times a week but still have the backaches. Thanks so much for all of the suggestions, I am definitely going to check these two places out.

- Try Edamame Spa inside the Destination Maternity?pea in the Pod sore at 57th & Madison. I had a great massage there.

- Not saying that a massage won't help, but have you tried exercising? I find that light aerobic activity (walking, elliptical machine) and yoga have kept me feeling great well into my 2nd trimester.

Live Below My Means

I live well below my means. It feels good and I don't have to worry if I get laid off or can never work again.
