Dear Julia   I would be interested in your list of trained pregnancy massage therapists around Sydney - would be great if you could post your list.   Cheers   Jane Palmer Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond Caring, Professional Midwifery Services Sydney Visit http://www.pregnancy.com.au -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Julia Willoughby Sent: Tuesday, 14 October 2003 10:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] siatic pain Hi Linda I'd suggest she needs to get assessed by a physio, used to dealing with pregnant women, if it's through tight buttock muscles (piriformis) massage to release these muscles can often really help, otherwise it might come from lumbar spine, position of baby, etc.  I've got info on trained pregnancy massage therapists around Sydney area if that helps, but best to get assessed first. Hope she gets some relief!
