The other group was absolutely forbidden to receive massages during the pregnancy, which sounds like a total bummer.
The pampered mothers-to-be had fewer signs of depression, lower stress levels, less back pain, and overall fewer prenatal complications.
The massaged group also had a 75 percent lower rate of premature births and 80 percent lower incidence of low birth rate.
