    Is it prohibited to have a body massage when you have your menstrual period?

    Prohibited? Probably not. It may not be the most comfortable thing tho', depending on the type of massage you're getting and how heavy your flow. Many factors to consider here.

      No it's not prohibited but please be honest with your therapist especially during heavy days. Being a massage therapist I have faced this kind of situation and felt what it feels like. It's a natural process kindly do inform your massage therapist before the start of massage service.

        I love a good massage when I’m on my period. But as others have mentioned, always inform the massage therapist. I also find that a massage chair is more comfortable than a standard table.

          yes! If you are on your period, you can still have a massage. If you take a few simple safety measures, getting a massage while you're on your period is safe.
