Provided you are in good health, it is completely OK to get any type of professional massage when you are having your period. Your therapist doesn't need to know you're on your period- male or female. If you go to a licensed professional, it shouldn't be an issue. If you feel that it's necessary sharing that information, it is completely up to you, especially if there unusual circumstances to consider. In all states in the US, draping which involves keeping the breasts and genitals covered is the law and will protect your modesty. In addition, many women will wear an under garment for added security/comfort during that time.

Thai Massage Thai massage should be modified during the fist part of a menstrual cycle. In Traditional Thai Medicine it is believed that giving Thai massage has profound effects on the body systems and during the first two or three days of menstruation your body is "too weak", so a "soft Thai massage" is OK during menstruation. You should definitely mention it to a Thai massage therapist as he/she will modify the treatment when massaging a woman during menstruation. More Options If you are getting energy work, it can be performed as usual.

If you are getting Swedish, no deep work to the abdomen.

In Thai massage, avoid the abdomen and low back.

Absolutely yes! Massage can help the client feel more relaxed and calm. There is types of massage to decrease uterine cramping. But if cramping makes you too sick or nauseous then wait to have a massage.
