dōTERRA is of Latin origin and means “Gift of the Earth.”
A: As pregnant women may find lying on their front uncomfortable, alternatives like side-lying or seated positions with slight posture adjustments to aid the receiver allow the full technique to still be administered properly. If side-lying is also challenging, recipients can sit backwards in a chair. Instead of working on the feet, the giver would perform the foot portion of the technique on the hands; however, we always recommend consulting with their physician.
