Oils in Pregnantcy

[Judas Rusty]

HI
Im not sure if this is theright place to ask this question It may be a stupid question?
I do Indian head and Swedish massage and was wondering which are the best vegetable oils to use on pregnant/breastfeeding ladies or is it best not to use oils at all.The oils I use are Almond ,coconut,apricot sesame and would like to try johoba. Are these oils ok or do they have any effects.

I use jojoba and grapeseed oils only in my practice, since I never have to worry about any possibility of nut-oil allergic reactions with those and they absorb very easily into the skin and give me enough glide but still have control for precise deep work.

These oils are what I use on my pregnant clients, no essential oils added, just the plain product. Since I am now pregnant myself I am not using any essential oils for ANY of my clients for the duration. There are too many that are contraindicated during pregnancy/breastfeeding and the sense of smell is especially acute at these times. Best to stick topure, plain vegetableoils with as little scent as possible and use no essential oil at all.
